Portlanders

Pacific Northwest locals

Portlanders are residents of Portland—usually Portland, Oregon, though the term applies equally to Portland, Maine.

The word often carries connotations of the Pacific Northwest city's culture: progressive politics, environmental consciousness, craft coffee, and studied quirkiness.

Portlanders take their bike lanes seriously.
