    Default Oregon advice? NOT P-town!

    I want to move back to Oregon next year (or year after), and I've only ever danced in California. If you have ever rented in the Bay Area, you'll understand my desire to leave, ha....
    I'd prefer to dance in Salem, but Eugene/Springfield area is a possibility. Can someone tell me a little about the clubs there? I don't know any OR dancers outside of Portland.
    I'd like to know:
    How "clean" is it?
    Will I be struggling to make ends meet/better off at a vanilla job/is it dead as fuck all the time? (I average between 300-500 right now, 3 nights a week. Will it be like that, ballpark?)
    What are my best options?
    Where should I avoid working?

    Thanks for anyone helping me out! I know that giving away club info is kinda against some people's codes, so you're awesome if you help! I have NO clue what Salem or Eugene clubs are like, and I may consider a different area yet. But this is my first choice, because that's where my family is <3
    There is no reason to take it up the ass and then act all butthurt.

    I've danced in the Eugene area since '09. Clubs are very casual here and most are pretty small. The most girls you'll work with on a shift is 15-20.
    Contact levels vary between clubs A LOT, depends on where you're working and what you consider clean. Based on things girls have posted about clubs in other states I'd call most of the clubs in this area clean.
    If you have a decent hustle I wouldn't see any problem with you making your average here. With the exception of summer, July and August are SLOW.

    I've worked in Bend and Salem at Stars. PM me and I will take time to give you a detailed report.

    ^ I really liked Salem Stars, the spring that I worked there it was quite profitable and the staff treated me well. Always heard good things about Stars in Bend but haven't made that venture.

    Eugene/Springfield can be tough. I used to live in Springfield and drove to Stars in Salem for work, about a 150 mile round trip. All the clubs are full nude and most have alcohol. Not sure about earnings possibilities, but your average will be hard to hit outside of a few clubs unless you're cool with giving extras.

    Are you moving to Oregon for school?

    Tour is right, it can be tough. A lot of clubs have dried up and at the others you do really have to get your hustle on. definitely not gonna get rich here but in regards to income it's more than enough when compared to cost of living. I've NEVER done extras and live comfortably of 3 five hour shifts a week.
