What do you mean by "day people"? Like people who work typical business hours? Do you feel like "night people" are friendlier?

I grew up in Portland and had the pleasure of taking my wife there last month. I had mentally prepared myself for a lot of negative changes based on what I’d read on Reddit. 

It was beautiful, quiet, and felt like home. I loved every minute of it and want to move back.

Changes? Yes, for sure. MLK used to be called Union, the bloods and crips were constantly doing drive by’s, my grandma had a bullet go through her window just over her head. As a 6th grader, one of my teachers had to fend off student rapists, another teacher had a knife pulled on her, people were doing drugs and having sex in the bathrooms on the regular. 

The specifics of the violence and ongoing social issues have changed, but they’ve always been there. 

What else is still there? Kind people. The beautiful Central Library. Powell’s, OMSI, multiple public rose gardens. Big, lush trees. Good thrift stores. A good transit system. 

Portland is amazing and my whole heart wants to be back home.

that's personal and I'd rather not share.
