Millennial and Gen Z Portland Go Head-to-Head

A couple of weeks ago, West Linn voted in their youngest elected mayor ever: 23-year-old Rory Bialostosky. As Gen Z begins to take office, older generations are taking notice. Today on City Cast Portland, we’re sharing a conversation we aired earlier this year between our own Gen Z audio producer, Giulia Fiaoni, and two elder millennials: our host Claudia Meza and Oregonian reporter Lizzy Acker.
