500 Subscriber Thank You Special - A Message from Sean/Vanilla PC Strategy to our Great Subscribers!
Hello friends! It's me, Sean, and I have made a short video to thank everyone for subscribing to my channel here on the event of our 500th subscription. I can't express well enough how amazing it is that so many people like to watch me play video games, but I do manage to fill several minutes by trying to do so.
There's not a whole lot to put in this section, but I did want to bring up a few points I couldn't think of while making the video. At one point I suggest that the population of both Portland and Oregon have doubled since I was a kid. This isn't quite true.
Portland's population in 1980 was 366K, today it is estimated at 632K. This is just for the city itself, we are surrounded by several of Oregon's larger cities and have a metro area of 2.4 million people.
Oregon's population was 2.63 million in 1980, today it is estimated at 4.09 million. However we are a large state, the 9th largest in the US, so it's not very densely populated. Once you get out of the metro area, most of Oregon is very rural.
I love it here and could go on and on about how much I love my city and state, but I'll link to the wiki pages here if you'd like to learn more.
