- About Portland, Oregon
Portland is a city at the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia rivers in the U.S. state of Oregon. With a population of 556,000, it is Oregon's largest city, and the third largest in the Pacific Northwest, after Seattle, Washington and Vancouver, British Columbia. Approximately 2 million live in the surrounding metropolitan area (MSA), the 24th-largest in the U.S.
Portland was incorporated in 1851, and is the seat of Multnomah County. The city and region are notable for strong land-use planning and investment in public transit, supported by Metro, a distinctive regional-government scheme. Portland lies in the Marine West Coast climate region; marked by warm summers and rainy but temperate winters, ideal for roses. Indeed, for more than a century, Portland has been known as 'The City of Roses', and has many rose gardens, most famously the International Rose Test Garden in Washington Park. Portland is also known for its large number of micro-breweries, as the home of the Trail Blazers NBA basketball team, and is one of only two U.S. cities containing an extinct volcano.
