About Oregon

This edition covers the real Oregon outside Portland's Silicon Forest, which already has its own dedicated coverage. Salem, in Marion County, is the state capital. Eugene, in Lane County, is home to the University of Oregon and Nike's founding roots. Bend, in Deschutes County, built a real outdoor-recreation and craft-brewing economy in Central Oregon, distinct from either Portland or the coast. None of these are Portland, and this edition doesn't treat them as smaller versions of it.
