You won't have the options that you have here in Austin, mainly because Portland is Tenant Friendly City and Pfugetville is Landlord friendly.

The city is among a number of nodes for Tesla suppliers popping up throughout the Austin metro as a result of the so-called "Tesla effect" — which is shorthand for the trend of electric vehicle suppliers flocking to the region in response to Tesla's mammoth presence in eastern Travis County, where it has a gigafactory and headquarters.

There is more growth happening outside of the city, the suburbs.
