One notable thing is based on the 2020 census, nearly everywhere in Oregon gained population from 2010, with the distribution being mostly pretty uniform (and Bend standing out big time).
Does OR losing population suggest now most of the state is shrinking, or is it being powered by specific communities?
Here's 2010-2020 growth map. Blue is positive growth, red is negative growth (there is no red). As one can see, growth patterns were relatively consistent across the state with the biggest growth coming from Bend, the immediate downtown of Portland, and Portland's outer suburbs. The least growth was from some of Portland's inner suburbs and some rural communities in the south and eastern parts of the state.
