What is Portland’s major contribution to the US economy?

Say what you will about New York or Seattle or LA but they all have pretty huge industries that involve companies that most Americans use every day.

What does Portland provide? I know Nike is out of Oregon but it’s not really associated with Portland is it? I’m not trying to shite on the city because I know plenty of people who enjoy visiting there and I’m sure you have a few bad actors ruining a cool city that likely has a silent majority of cool people living there.

But what is what drives their economy like a New York or Chicago and what do they provide the rest of the country? Hell at least New Orleans has ports as well as proximity to oil and gas and pretty solid tourism.

ETA: people have really misunderstood the point of this post. I’m looking for legit areas as to why it’s a good place to live and what it provides. I have really no idea. I’ve never even met someone from Portland in my life so how would I know? A lot of people have provided good answers. I don’t know why me asking what’s good about Portland somehow makes people assume I think there’s nothing good about it. All I know about it before this thread is Voodoo donuts and they have lots of craft beer.
