I am the only one in my family that was Born here in Salem ,Oregon. Both sides of my family were born in California.

I have lived in Salem Oregon for 17 years. I love it here. The weather is always unpredictable.It can be snowing one day, then the next day it can be hot and humid out. Salem ,Oregon being the capitol of Oregon is odd. There is a mix of punk rebellious teens with high standard stuck up lawyers. Salem is fun and boring at the Same time. We are close to everything. 30 minutes away is Portland ,Oregon. 40 minutes away is the coast. 1 hour away is Mt. Hood.
