She will work from a home office but travel to medical offices in Seattle and Portland a few times a month.

Thanks. We love the outdoors. Even the kids ski (8 & 5 yrs old) and I fly fish. Wifey loves hiking. Bend would be ideal for lifestyle, but I think Portland or Seattle may make more sense for the job.

Ok, so what I would do is live in Washington (avoid Oregon State income tax) but live just north of Portland.

Imo everything you like to do is a bit closer to Portland. Vancouver has high real estate prices but you can live in a smaller town like Woodland or Battleground. Cheaper homes and no traffic.

This is if you can find a job in Vancouver. You don't want to do the commute to Portland. It's insane. Your wife is close to Portland and only 140 miles from Seattle.
