Portland Oregon - The Best Place to Have a Baby

FitPregnancy Magazine has listed Portland, OR as the top city in the nation for having a baby. Just another reason to live or move here. Portland, and the surrounding cities are considered some of the best places to live for many reasons, and according to a number of different sources.

In this study, Portland ranked high on low maternal and infant mortality, health of baby, breastfeeding, use of midwives, doulas and lactation consultants. The availability of high-risk pediatricians was also stated as well as the number of parks and state laws allowing breast feeding in public.

So, if you live here, CONGRATULATIONS!! If not, pack up and move here. Home values are relatively stable and I've got a loan program with your name on it.
