Portland!!
It's cleaner, more beautiful area, smaller, friendlier, much more outdoor activities within close proximity .... mountains, ocean, and everything in between. |

CHICAGO, SINCE I'M ALREADY IN ILLINOIS. I LIKE ILLINOIS BECAUSE IT'S IN THE MIDDLE OF THE USA. SO NO MATTER WHICH DIRECTION I WANT TO GO I'M ALREADY HALF WAY THERE. |

Portland--Have you seen Chicago? It's a great place, but it's pretty trashy. It's cluttered and has a very interesting smell to it.
Portland is beautiful. I went there when I was in high school and fell in love with it right away. I just love the outdoors! |

If you had asked about Seattle or Chicago - it would be a no-brainer (Seattle) ... but of Portland and Chicago, I'll go with Chicago.
It's a bit colder, but it's more sophisticated, with a variety of restaurants, museums, and activities.
Chicago is also centrally located for a wealth of day trips.
Portland just feels a bit too GRANOLA (Birkenstock, tofu, crunchy ... ) for me. |

CHICAGO.
Great city. Very diverse, lots of culture, great restaurants, plenty of cool bars, very nice people and reasonably-priced real estate.
Everyone will tell you that winters are unbearably cold, but it's not always true and doesn't last long. Summer weather is awesome. |

Personally Portland, because it closer to home, and its not so much in the HUGE city area. |

Chicago, no offense but Portlands seems a little dull!? |

I would rather live in Portland because it's a smaller, more ecclectic city and it's beautiful. It's also somewhat safer and it's a diverse culture filled place to live. And the weather is slightly more mild. |

Portland, Oregon. I've lived in the downtown areas of both and I never felt safe in Chicago and never felt threatened in Portland. |

PORTLAND. Way nicer schools, way less crime, way nicer weather (not as much snow). Probably way nicer people. |

If it was either/or, Portland. One of the nicer big cities I have visited, beautiful scenery close by, but really crowded. But Chicago is way too big, impersonal, and like most of the big cities, nasty. |

Both seem OK, so Id take Chicago. I'm seriously fearful of the HUGE Tsunami that is due to hit the northwest coast - and even though Portland is inland, its still too close... |

I don't care for wind or rain much, but I would have to choose Chicago because that's where my best friend lives. |
