According to a report on CNN, Portland is the #2 "time saving" city in the US (Seattle is #1, San Fran is #3).

Portland was praised for its walkable downtown (with lots of good eats) and its transit system, its farmers markets, and widespread wifi. And apparently, we've got a good supply of doctors in town, as wait times to see one are low.
Now if we could just get that unemployment rate down.....

These ratings things never impressed me.

Means nothing cause all this stuff depends on who you are and where you are and the factors influencing your life.
Depends on who is doing the rating. Some ratings I would pay attention to, others, not so much.
