Portland is a city found in the Northwestern united states, near the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia rivers in the state of Oregon. As of July 2008, it has an approximate population of 557,706 making it the 29th most populous in the U. S. . It has been known as the most environmentally friendly or'green' city in the US, and the following most in the world. Portland is Oregon's most populous city, and the third most populous town in the Pacific Northwest.
Portland straddles the Willamette brook near its confluence with the Columbia stream. The denser and earlier-developed west side is typically hemmed in by the nearby West Hills ( Tualatin Mountains ), though it extends over them to the border with Washington County. The flatter east side fans out for about 180 blocks, until it meets the suburb of Gresham. Agricultural Multnomah County lies farther east.
