Well, you certainly picked the right general area, IMO. I might suggest you also look one town to the south in Tigard, where I live. The neighborhoods are just as nice and the tax rate is way lower. Remember, although there is no sales tax in Oregon, we do have a property tax.
Also, Beaverton probably grows the prettiest girls (except for Juulie, of course, who grew up in Portland). My wife grew up in Beaverton and, two years after HS, was Miss Beaverton in the Miss Oregon pageant.
Hey - you didn't think I'd marry some woofer, did you?
Beaverton is also home to the Tualatin Hills Officials Assn. They're probably the largest rec assn. in the state. They work bazillions of kids and adult rec games. If you want, I'm sure you can work our kids rec league here in Tigard even if you live in Beaverton. We have a couple of guys who do that.
