I'm new and still trying to get my footing. First up, I live in Portland Oregon, which has banned overnight parking in most places. The often suggested Cracker Barrel, Walmart, and 24hr Fitness spots are not available to me in my city. So I'm trying to find alternative spots. Hospitals and ER parking have been suggested to me several times, but I've also gotten a few people adamantly telling me NOT to park there.
I'd love to know where you land on the subject. Are hospitals a viable option, or should I avoid them and try other streets instead? I'd especially love to hear from people who are familiar with Portland, since it's a bit of a tricky city and I can't leave for a while.
