The tourism industry in Oregon is a billion dollar business. In 2022, travelers boosted the Oregon economy by bringing in some $13 billion dollars.

Portland gets the most visitors to Oregon. It is known as a progressive town where people of all sorts of lifestyles and cultures feel safe to visit. The second largest city in Oregon that keeps getting visitors is Eugene, home of the Oregon Ducks. It is about an hour away from the Pacific Coast and is a respite from larger cities like Salem and Portland. The University of Oregon brings in over 23,000 college students each year.
