At least in terms of real estate, Portland is the cheapest major city on the west coast. By far.
$900 doesn't get much anywhere here I've seen.
CD - have you considered further south, but still within a short commute? LO, Tigard, Tualatin and such? I used to live in LO and for a while took the bus up I5 to downtown. Ride was only about 20 minutes from the bus stop around the Bridgeport shopping area.
Not knowing your budget, it's hard to say.
