    Those fools... Californians aren't even our problem anymore. I miss the days of seeing a Cali plate.

    It's all these damn east coasters moving directly to Portland. The hipsters are ruining our city :(

    Case in point "Irvine eventually sold the house where the sticker appeared for $450,000 – to a man from New York, he said."

    Good! And only rent them to people who can actually name a player on the 1996 Trail Blazers roster.

    Done! And we shall lord the properties over the heads of the wannabe hipsters who can only give you the names of the current Timbers roster.

    Unfortunately gentrification is a side effect of the urban growth boundary. There's not enough new development and the inventory of houses on the market is at a 10 year low. Things are getting crazy out there.

    Just wait until interest rates go up and the economy tanks, these houses will all be in foreclosure and short sales.

    I sure as hell couldn't... The part that I don't understand is how does our economy hope to sustain these prices? This isn't Seattle (Boeing, Microsoft) or the Bay area (Google, Silicon Valley). This isn't New York or LA. We don't have shit for jobs here. Outside of Intel and Nike, where is all this money coming from? We have a ton of young, educated, hungry people moving here and for what? I don't see how our economy is going to support these prices.
