Good Information to understand the area

Very good information about the different areas. After exploring the area, I go back and re-read about that area. I would recommend this book for someone who is planning or just has moved to the Portland area.

Incredibly helpful for anyone moving to the Portland area. In need of an update but one can easily fill in the gaps.
