Whole Foods Closes In San Francisco

Yes, actually, they did get worse, due to construction and changes in access on 23rd Street, the primary access route in and out of the Pearl District. And a municipal parking lot nearby was closed, reducing nearby parking to that available on the street. The lot had been usable ever since the REI opened. I visit that area frequently, and lately, it's been a traffic nightmare. It's the reason why I go to a different Trader Joe's than the one on 23rd, even though that one is close.

I'm not going to allow you to use the word "fleeing." It's prejudicial and inaccurate. People leave cities all the time, for a myriad of reasons. They also move INTO cities, for a myriad of reasons.

PLEASE TELL US WHY, IF SO MANY PEOPLE ARE "FLEEING" PORTLAND, THE CITY'S POPULATION HAS INCREASED BY 23,000 OVER THE PAST YEAR.

Or weasel and don't admit you're full of shit, as you usually do.

Portland proper population plummeted over 1% in 2002.  You and i know that this will accelerate.  Don't ever provide bull shit data from Portland Metro.  You and I know that doesn't represent what your Mayor is doing.

2002? Boiler, you DO live in the past!

Portland sucks, and the population data is proving it.  Kevin lied about his data, and does that surprise anyone?

He tells us that I live in the past..............2022 Portland population data is the apparently the past for a Lyin' Liberal.

BTW, Kevin claims that I used old data.... which is the most current data available.  Kevin, what data period and from what geography was your data generated from?  Once again, watch his dance.

Kevin is one more reason why to never trust a Lyin' Liberal.

You're the one who said his data was from 2002.

Never trust an idiot who lives 21 years in the past.

And I answer you again, and for the last time.

The city of Portland.

Nope, your data is not for Portland.  Nice try, as Portland decreased in population in 2022 by over 1%....according to the US Cencus Bureau.

So I ask you once again, where did your data come from?  I know where is came from, but I want you to tell us.

We all know that Kevin won't tell the truth about where he got his bull shit data showing that Portland population is growning.  From 2020 to 2022, Portland's population decreased by 3.4% over two years....11,000 people left in 2021, and 11,000 more people left in 2022.  I'm certain that 2023 news will be even more horrible.  The people most likely to leave are the very people that Portland needs the most.  Folks with money will continue to leave, while drug addicts and criminals will move in.

Enjoy the woke policies that you voted for Kevin!  We told you so.

Okay, I let you in on Kevin's secret about the data he's posted.  It's from "metro" Portland.  After decades of Portland growth, people are fleeing the Liberal and woke Portland, and moving to the Conservative nearby suburbs.  It's always amazing to me that this Liberal crowd always doubles down on failed policies, and that's what you're going to continue seeing in Portland.

I know the difference between the city of Portland and metro Portland, and I gave you the former, not the latter. I notice that you're sticking with your one "source" for your claim. Can't find another one that uses real data, can you?

Portland's suburbs vote strongly liberal, the same as Portland proper. So your idiot theory is nonsense.
