Summary
Portland has become a global model of transit-oriented development (TOD). For more than 40 years, city planners have integrated transport decisions into urban growth and development efforts. The result: Portland is consistently ranked as one of the country's most livable cities, boasting a healthy two percent population growth annually - and the second-lowest per capita transportation spending of the 28 largest U.S. metropolitan areas.
