I went to Portland last week and tried staying in downtown area but then stayed further out because it was too sketchy. I didn’t like walking late at night with my luggage. I think there’s a bunch of young kids ready to do something. I have been to other downtowns in the past and this one was the worst I have experienced. I won’t be going back. I liked the wild woodlands trail in forest park and that’s it. I tried walking at 11 am near the downtown and it sucked too. Security everywhere. Overall it was disappointing. #vacation #travel

I agree. Maine in general needs to get its act together.
Definitely, they need to learn from PDX
I meant Portland Oregon. Didn’t even know there was one in Maine.
Wth. Who thinks about Maine when hearing Portland?
People from Portland
Ikr. He’s trying to be funny. He got his likes. 🤷🏾♂️
Sad because it used to be nice
TLDR: Extremist progressive policies have consequences.
Come to think of it I literally can’t remember seeing a police officer patrolling the area. Did they actually get defunded? What’s the deal?
Elections have consequences. You get what you voted for. Look at all the Liberal cities.
I used to live there, downtown is sketchy but stay away from it. Beaverton, Hillsboro, and Lake Oswego are really good; one lives there and goes to downtown only if required. Btw, if you’re still there, get burritos from La Jarrochita on SW and 5th, I recommend the Chicken and Spinach.
Downtown has gone to shit in the last couple of years. Hope it will come back but it will take a while.
Why does this read like a 9 year old wrote it?
Haha. I’m not 9. Maybe because of the short sentences?
It’s because every single sentence starts with “I [adverb or verb]”, like a child recapping their summer vacation. “I went to the beach. I saw a crab. I worried the water would be cold. I tried to surf. I liked the beach.”
I stay at the Marriott riverfront and it’s a great hotel with very nice views.
You’re right, that is very nice.
