Interracial black/asian family want to relocate in Oregon need help in a good place? |
Travel Info My husband is black and I am filipino & would like to live in Oregon we are young & have a 2 year old son. I wanted to know where is a good place to live for a young interracial family. We have experienced much racism especially my husband & we are looking for somewhere to raise our family & feel social tolerance he has been discriminated against in finding work & is depressed by being turned down by the color of his skin please help. Travel Tips Portland Oregon has beat out Salt Lake City Utah as the "Whitest City in America" ie having the highest percentage of white people per capita. With that said, in the 29 years I have lived here, I have seen very few instances of racisim. There has been some generalized non violent racisim in the form of gentrification, but race is rarely a motive for Portlanders to get violent. We tend to be a rather open city. Our emplyment has been getting better lately, though it is still difficult to find a job. Source(s): I live here! Other Travel Tips Seattle. I hear it is a safe and friendly place for families. My dad has been there and says it is nice. I also read that it is one of the best places to live and raise families. For some personal advice: no matter where you go there will always be someone who does not like you because your husband is black and that you married him. It is a very sad thing that there are stil people like that. I believe that race does not matter and as long as you are happy and in love, no one can do anything to harm you and your family, emotionally. Just stay strong, you will find your place one day. The Portland are only, You would not like Scio or Heppner too well. i used to live in myrtle creek oregon. its pretty desolate but the people there were amazing. i live in mass now and its extremely different. people there will see you on the street and stop to greet you and people here in mass are always in a hurry. for my own tastes myrtle creek roseburg area is wonderfull. as for your situation im really sorry people can be so cruel. i love the asian culture and want to go to china so bad. i hope everything works out for you. take care and godbless! =D [. MY_ORGINI]. IN M OPION I HAVE TO AGREE WITH ON THIS MATTER AS WELL TO ??? Portland is actually quite race friendly and provides the best selections of neighborhoods, jobs and living. For the 15 years that I lived there as a chinese man, I had only 1 distinctive racial hatred encounter. And I worked in the hospitatlity business and meets lots of strangers on a daily base. |
