Why did you move to Oregon?

Census data shows that Oregon's population has been steadily growing faster than the population of the U.S. as a whole. Are you a transplant? Our Arts and Life producers want to hear from people who weren't born here, but who now call Oregon home.

Tell us about where you're from and how your move came about. How is life different since you moved? What do you think of your new home? What do you like about living here, and what keeps you here?
