Schools, neighborhoods, and safety will be significant concerns if you want to move to Oregon or the Portland Metro Area and have kids. I recommend looking at West Linn, Lake Oswego, Sherwood, and Wilsonville. The school districts in these cities are among the highest ranked in the state, and they have some of the best kid-friendly neighborhoods you'll find. Three of the four made my top ten safest cities list. Wilsonville finished #11.
