Definition

For coverage purposes, metro Portland is Portland, OR together with every incorporated community within 72 miles that is closer to Portland than to any other metro anchor — 10 communities and about 860,325 people beyond the core city. Communities are assigned to their nearest anchor, so the boundaries follow travel distance rather than county lines.

Geography

Climate

Between October and April the Portland area averages an overnight low of 40.1°F and reaches 23.6°F at its coldest, with 161 days below 45°F — about 5.3 months. A cat’s thermoneutral zone starts around 86°F against a typical indoor 64–72°F, so those are the months an indoor cat here is actively hunting for a heat source.
