Portland Region
Visitors spend $5.3 billion in the Portland Region, which leads to the direct employment of 36,100 locals.
Like its monikers, Portland is pretty unique. It has world-renowned chefs and hundreds of food carts; art in theaters and outside on the street; the world’s largest independent bookstore and highest concentration of craft breweries; a huge urban forest; and a bridge reserved for bicyclists. This isn’t your typical city. If Portland wasn’t so different, it wouldn’t be Portland.

It’s a combination of people traveling for business, people visiting friends and family, and tourists who are coming to Oregon or going around the world to see places.”
