Abstract
  • Until recently, manufacturing in the Portland Metropolitan Area was highly concentrated in the central city, with little industrial activity in the periphery of the urban area except for primary processing of timber and agricultural resources. However, in recent years, especially within the last decade, industrial activity has spilled well beyond the limits of the City of Portland. Needed space for expansion, congestion, rising land values, and other factors have tempted an increasing number of resident plants to relocate in the suburbs. In addition, firms new to the Portland Area have rejected a central city location in favor of the suburban area. As a result of these developments, a significant proportion of manufacturing employment and establishments is presently located in the suburban area.
