Moreland Branch Meeting 9.9.2014

For your Blog:

Statistics by Nerdwallet – Wonder what their logo looks like?….. But I digress. Here’s a list of the Top 10 ‘Oregon Homes on the Rise’. Most are around PDX, but a couple might surprise you! http://goo.gl/fwkS0e

Houses, Condos, or Apartments, oh my! Even with little houses, 80% DO want a detached home. Not sure about the whole keeping up the yard thing, though. http://goo.gl/ACwzf7

I think Portland being #1 is cool, but the title is a bit cumbersome. Best small domestic restaurant and cocktail and drinks culture city. After how many drinks can you still be under the ‘culture’ umbrella? http://goo.gl/MziiQ7
