Rent in Newberg getting crazy
Hey, I'm retired and Property taxes are high but you get good services. Worth the trade-offs?

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 2 years ago from Salt Lake City and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: Lots of new construction which should help. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in The Heights. It's better than expected for what you get.
Jobs: The market is manageable right now, especially in hospitality. If you're in hospitality you might struggle.
People: Generally pretty good. It took about 9 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: underrated. Tons of options if you like Korean.
Happy to answer more specific questions..
