Hello, I have just been offered a job in Portland and I'm seriously thinking about moving. I have heard so many great things about the Northwest. My only concern is what a good salary in the Portland area would be. The low for my position is 50,000 but I was thinkg more around 55,000. My life style is pretty aggressive because I love spending my hard earn money at the bars. What's up with the state tax in Oregon?????

It's going to depend on where you want to live, your bills, your lifestyle (other than at the bar), and any other financial responsibilities you may have. If you elect to live within your means, you'll be fine. It isn't like NYC where $100K is the bare minimum to live decently.

What do you want to know specifically about the OR income tax?
