Possibly moving to Portland from Phoenix, AZ. Transplants (from anywhere), what considerations do you wish you would have thought of (or did) now that you live in Portland?

Wikipedia

Forgive me if this is a exhausting question, but I did search both this and r/Portland and didn't find many answers. Anyway, for the past few years I've been juggling moving to Portland (or Denver) against how comfortable I am now. I love (LOVE) the weather here (barring anytime it's 110 or higher), but to my surprise Portland is reasonably temperate. (At least from what I see on weather.com and wikipedia.org) A few years ago I got my dream-ish job here, which is the main reason I stayed. Then, over the years I've been there my social life flourished (relatively) and now I have more friends I don't want to leave behind. Plus, I've been here almost my entire adult life so I haven't known much else. Conversely, I hit 30 a couple months ago, and have to ask myself "is this it?", and no, I don't think this is all I want to do, or be, or give. There is a small chance I might be getting another dream-ish job at a non-profit I really respect in Portland soon, so I figure just in case, let's get some advice from the locals! (although, I guess if I don't get the job... Well hopefully this is useful to someone else one day, lol).
