Portland area index 105.4, where 100 is the national average.

Portland costs about 5% above the national average, but the trade-off is tangible: post-shift food cart pods on Alberta, Saturday mornings at Powell's City of Books, and an aerial tram that glides you to OHSU above the Willamette. This is where nurses trade strip malls for rain-forest trails.
