Portland, Oregon's largest city and the seat of Multnomah County, sits in the Willamette Valley near the Columbia River. Known for its progressive atmosphere, it's a major hub in the Pacific Northwest. The city has a dense population and a diverse economy, with significant healthcare, trade, and technology sectors.
For transgender people, Portland benefits from Oregon's statewide non-discrimination laws covering employment, housing, and public spaces. The city itself has reinforced these protections through local measures, signaling a commitment to inclusivity. Oregon also offers relatively accessible processes for updating legal name and gender markers on state-issued documents. The city fosters a visible LGBTQ+ community with various social and support networks available.
