Portland is by far the safest city I've lived in. As long as you use common sense like you would anywhere else you will be fine. If you move here from pretty much any larger city that has a regular stream of crime you will think Portland is a paradise as far as crime goes b/c you won't see hardly any outside of bicycle theft and random homeless people yelling at each other in downtown. As with anything how bad you think it is will mostly depend on what you have been exposed to such as living in other large cities with a lot of crime. I love Portland b/c it is so safe compared to so many other places. Again just use common sense and you will be fine. If the Oregonian starts having headlines like the one attached to the link below then I would start to get concerned.

Classic "comment that didn't age well" in bold above. Thanks, Black Lives Matter, Antifa and bleeding hearts who make criminals into victims over race and class status.
