Another Sactown => PDX refugee here. Pretty much love the weather year round. But I loved Sacramento's rainy winters, so I'm likely wired that way. It's taken a while to adjust to the idea that summer is a season where you actually go outside instead of hiding indoors with a/c.

I resonate with the "filthy and dilapidated" comment though. I blew off Portland as a dirty industrial town for a lot of years before moving here. It still has a lot of that heritage, and if you're from a place that constantly tears things down and rebuilds, you likely won't understand it here.
