No i used to work like a block away from it way back in the early 2000s before they were even known, they'd come by with buckets of donuts and give them out its just sugary crap donuts with cereal on it etc like something a 10 year old or stoner would think up. I dont know how it became popular as a tourist thing

Portland can be 180 but you can't be annoyed by cold rain and you have to find hipster chicks attractive, especially ones that have a bit more blubber on them than in LA or NYC.

Portland is a lot like an entire city made up of Brooklyn. Or it's Austin if you took away the UT students and were left with just hipsters and tech nerds.

A lot of doods find the PNW to be a bit sparse on attractive women.

If you get SAD, stay away from Portland.

If it's where you want to be long-term (or there's a chance), then yes, move. You won the lottery.

Portland isn't Erie, PA but it's pretty damn cheap relative to a big city (while offering 98% of the Brooklyn/hipster stuff that NY, LA, and SF/Oakland do), particularly if you don't need to live in the nicest 1/4 of Lake Oswego. Your QOL will be immeasurably better. My concern would be that this is a one-way move if you ever want to go back to NYC.

If your offer is from Perkins Coie, or to a lesser extent for CA anyway Stoel Rives or DWT, that shouldn't be too much of a problem aside from the bar stuff. Two big geographic moves (and bars?) as an associate is a lot, though.
