Portland

Holiday Resolution


Portland is a city located in the U.S. state of Oregon, near the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia rivers.
As of the 2010 Census, it had a population of 583,776, estimated to have reached 587,865 in 2012, making it the 28th most populous city in the United States.

Portland is a rural community of 10,046 residents, located in northern middle Tennessee, just five miles south of Kentucky and 35 miles north of Nashville, the State Capital.

Although we have a somewhat rural setting, we are only a half-hour away from bustling Nashville (known as the "Athens of the South"), where one can find the Titans, a professional football team; the Predators, a professional hockey team; the Metros, a professional soccer team;  the Gaylord Entertainment Center;  the Grand Ole Opry; the Tennessee Performing Arts Center;  the Nashville Symphony; the Frist Center; Vanderbilt University; major shopping malls and numerous fine restaurants.  This gives us easy access to cultural and entertainment opportunities, yet allows us a rural, small-town life-style for our homes and families.
