Please spell out 'Oregon'. You can't search for 'OR'.

Too late for me to edit my original post but your reply will show up in that search, thanks!

Yes you can. Entering Portland, OR in Google will usually filter out results for Portland, Maine (at least for the accounts I tested).

Portland Oregon is not Oregon though. Perhaps people are interested in what's on offer throughout the state.

Doing a simple text search on 'OR' has a zillion false positives.

No, but the job was in Portland, OR. And if you Google the city you'll find out about the area. Which includes as much Washington State anyway, I wouldn't base my decision of moving to Portland just on the state of Oregon.
