Thinking about moving to bend at the end of summer 2014, following graduation in CO.  What is bend like?  Cool place?  I like that its close to bachelor, 3.5 hrs to the ocean, lots of national forest, etc.  Can anyone give me some info?  Anything is appreciated, just trying to paint a picture in my head of what its like.

Things I'm interested in knowing about:  Emphasis=*
-Skiing*
-Biking
-Fishing*
-Bars/Nightlife
-Live Music*
-Women
-Camping
-Kayaking/Rafting*
-Breweries/Food
-Cost of Living
-Job Market

All of the activities you listed are easily accessible, close to town, and pretty stellar in their own rights. Don't forget about climbing though, we've got a strong climbing community here, with a good mix of types.

Bars and night life: tons! of microbrews, with constant live music.

Living price is decent, but is still a little above average depending on what side of town you live on. But well worth it.

Job market, I think it depends on what you're trying to get into. I've been able to find some sort of summer job here every year. But as far as careers I think you'll have to do your own research.

I've lived here since birth and love it. If I were to get really nit-picky though, I'd say our pow can get kind of heavy sometimes, and the town's getting a little to big for my liking. But the pro's far outweigh the con's here.
