 Portland, Oregon's job market in 2025 reflects a mixed landscape amid significant challenges, with Oregon's statewide unemployment rate climbing to 5 percent according to AOL reports, the highest since COVID, driven by massive layoffs totaling nearly 9,000 mass job cuts as detailed by The Chronicle. Despite this, the United Van Lines 2025 National Movers Study highlights strong inbound migration to Oregon at 65 percent, fueled by job opportunities in tech and health care, positioning the state as a top destination for job-seeking migrants at 36 percent. Major industries include tech, where Intel has slashed staff, health care, and cannabis, though Oregon Liquor and Cannabis Commission data shows sales dipping 3.7 percent to $848 million through November per Canna Law Blog. Key employers like Intel face cuts, while growing sectors such as tech and health care attract movers, though AI adoption threatens entry-level tech roles as noted by Portland Business Journal. Trends indicate softening with historic layoffs outpacing norms, mixed national signals from ADP's modest October hiring uptick versus Challenger Gray's surge in U.S. pink slips, and employee confidence waning per Glassdoor amid uncertainty. Unemployment data gaps exist due to federal shutdown delays in Bureau of Labor Statistics reports. Recent developments include Oregon's year of unprecedented job losses shaking the economy, countered by migration boosting metro areas like nearby Eugene-Springfield at 85 percent inbound. Seasonal patterns show late-year cooling akin to housing market rebalancing in Portland per Mainebiz, though not directly job-tied. Commuting trends remain unaddressed in available data, as do specific government initiatives. Housing shortages near Portland, with nearby Salem at 8.23 percent shortfall per Wealth Enhancement Group analysis, may hinder worker influx despite job growth lags. The market is evolving from a former tech hub toward rebalancing with inbound momentum but layoff pressures.

Key findings: High unemployment and layoffs dominate, yet migration signals resilience in tech and health care.
