And while you are at it get some in-demand certifications, then look at Portland again. I am a Portland native and when I graduated from college my Mother advised me to obtain my initial experience in a large city. I think that advise is good today.

Seriously, what's a hipster? I can understand "hipsters" being a reason why you wouldn't patronize a particular business, but to write off an entire city because of "them"? That's utter nonsense.

People don't even realize that what was once "hipster" is basically now just mainstream, young person style. Flannel, tight fitting jeans, beanies, thick rimmed glasses - these are all things that basically all "fashionable" young people wear nowadays. To think that they're all associated with the negative things that are usually pinned to hipsters (pretentiousness, extreme liberalism, etc.) is just stupid.
