Portland, ‘repelling its current citizens,’ is Seattle’s cautionary tale

"Last year Portland had twice as many homicides as Seattle, and about 4,000 more car thefts (11,000 versus 7,000), in a city with 100,000 fewer residents. It also has an estimated 800 homeless encampments." https://t.co/oGAB5g76a7
