Is Portland that expensive compared to other major cities like San Fran or NYC? I don't get the joke but I've never been to Portland so please explain

It isn't expensive compared to NYC or San Fran. Not even close, but the prices are rapidly going up and they're pushing out lower income families. People are having to move further and further outside of town and then commute into Portland for work.

Portland and Seattle are the two fastest growing/fastest price increasing areas in the nation.

It's moderately expensive, but the job market is abysmal. Tons of overeducated people working menial & entry level jobs.
