Rooms for rent in Portland

With a population shy of 700,000, Portland is the second-most populous city in the Pacific Northwest after Seattle. It’s an excellent place for digital nomads to visit, and once they fall in love, join a coliving space there. Imagine waking up on a spring morning, snowboarding down the mountain after breakfast, and surfing after lunch.

A classic Portland attraction is the network of tunnels below the city. The catacombs were used for nefarious purposes in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Portland is also home to several epic concert venues, gardens, and museums. With national forests on every border of the city, there are no limits to outdoor activities such as camping, hiking, and mountain biking.

Getting around Portland is easy and is one of the many reasons people choose it as a stop on their coliving adventure. While 6.3% of locals commute by bike, the highest number for large American cities, there are certainly more accessible, less labor-intensive options. The city offers several rail services, a bus network with over 100 routes, and a cable car called the Portland Aerial Tram.

Weather in Portland is relatively mild, with highs in the mid-40s in winter and the mid-80s in summer. There is a good deal of rain simply because it’s surrounded by rainforest.

Food and drink are abundant around town. Thanks to its extensive arsenal of microbreweries, Portland is ranked the world’s best beer city. Portland has had food carts rolling around from as early as 1910. They have so many options there’s even a website to help you navigate the endless opportunities!

Here are some fun facts about Portland:

- A coin toss named the city. The two founders were from Portland, Maine, and Boston, Massachusetts. They let the coin decide.
- Portland holds an annual naked bike ride
- Portland has the world’s smallest park, only 2.5 feet in diameter
- A street performer called The Unipiper dressed as Darth Vader rides a unicycle while playing a flaming bagpipe.

Finding affordable communal living in Portland

Finding affordable housing in Portland can be tough, especially in cities with high rent prices. One solution that many people turn to is communal living with shared spaces and roommates. This can be a cost-effective way to have a private room while still being able to afford rent in a desirable location. There are a few different options for finding a shared living arrangement in Portland. One option is to look for a private room for rent in a coliving home. This can be a good option for people who want some privacy, but still want to be part of a community. Another option is to look for a shared room, where you'll be sharing a bedroom with one or more roommates. This can be more affordable, as you'll only be responsible for paying for your own bed. The downside is that you'll have less privacy, as you'll be sharing a bedroom with others. You can find both accommodation options on Coliving.com. We can help you find a compatible roommate based on your preferences and lifestyle. Some hosts do background checks and eviction history checks to ensure that the roommates you're living with are trustworthy individuals. When looking for a shared living arrangement, it's important to do your due diligence and make sure that you're comfortable with the living arrangement and the people you'll be living with.
