How Oregon are you? | Comments

The title of this quiz is incorrect. It should read "How Portland, Oregon are you?" since in my opinion (as a "rural" Oregonian) this quiz shows a clear, definite bias.

For those reading this who may not be from or familiar with Oregon... there is a subtle (and yet in some instances a rather distinct) difference between some Oregonians. I'm referring specifically to urbanites from "the Valley" (such as Portland, Eugene etc.) and those from more rural areas or basically the rest of Oregon.

However, generally speaking, Oregon is really a great place with truly wonderful people. For Jeff Foxworthy-type "insider" humor I suggest doing an Internet browser search for "You know you're living in / from Oregon when" etc. :)

This quiz is messed up, it should be called how well do you know the rainy, city, part of oregon called portland. If one is going to make a quiz on a whole state, use questions that include diffrent parts of the state, not questions that only relate to one area.

I scored an 85% and that surprised me. I was 21 when I moved to Oregon permanently. My job puts me into contact with scores of Oregonians everyday. Along with my job and raisin' three children--for many years--well that probably helped my score tremendously!

Only 31% Oregon?! I call BS! I have been living in the tiny, over a century old town of Gervais for as long as I can remember. For those who don't know, Gervais, OR, 97026, is a small town in between Brooks and Woodburn, founded in the early 1870s. I know this because looking left from my front yard shows me the damn sign. Pretty quaint town with about 9 out of 10 households being Mexican, no joke. Not to mention the high population of a--holes, dicks, and douchebags.

I am a native Oregonian and am 70 yrs, old. I believe this tested more one's knowledge of Portland and Wllamette Valley areas. We have huge Eastern OR, Coastal Region and Southern OR areas chock full of questions.

What Clark said -- this is a Portlandia quiz, not an Oregonian quiz.

Neil, Vera, and Tom? That makes me think of Neil Goldschmidt, and Tom McCall, but I have no idea who "Vera" is. I seem to vaguely recall that Portland once had a mayor by that name, but I've never actually lived in Portalnd...

You are 44% Oregon 44%

There's some Oregon in you! Get back here and polish your glasses. We miss you. Salmon Street Springs just isn't the same without you.

I've lived here my whole life!

I'm from Portland, Oregon! I lived in the smallest neighborhood, just 5 houses. That was it. 5 houses. But it was never boring.

I'm 12 now and it's been a couple years since I moved to Arkansas. Now this place is boringggggg

I've lived in Molalla, Oregon for my entire life. I've been to Eastern, Oregon a few times, yet it claims I spend too much time there.

"How Portland are you"*

You may have gone to school in Oregon, but you spent way too much time in Eugene or Corvallis. Time to come back.

I live in Eugene and I'm confused...

Why does everyone only think of Portland when they think of Oregon?

I got 21%... I've lived here my entire life. I live more rurally.
