Answer: The government gave them to railroad companies for development.

Explanation:

The United States government used part of the public domain land to aid and support the construction of railroads.

Private banks were hesitant to grant money to railroad companies because they would probably take lots of time to pay it off. That´s why Congress granted land to the railroad companies. Four out of the five transcontinental railroads were created with aid from the federal government. This contributed to a faster settlement of the West.

Answer:

"Oregon has a slightly higher overall rate of crime than most states according to FBI reporting for both property and violent crime. See the link below for our best places to live in Oregon list for some of the safest (& best) places in Oregon.

Oregon residents pay a higher tax burden overall than people residing in most other US states according to the Tax Foundation. True, above in the “pro” portion we highlighted the fact that Oregon doesn’t collect sales tax on purchases. However, all states have roads, police protection and or other services they must provide for residents and they must raise funds to pay for it somehow. Oregon’s income tax burden is one of the highest in the nation. It is progressive, meaning lower income earners pay a lower percentage than those with high incomes. Income tax rates start at 5% and rise as income does, to a top rate of 9.9%.

Oregon has a higher cost of living than most other states. Housing in most of Oregon is not cheap. Okay, it’s actually quite expensive with a median home price far above the national average. The cost of goods and services across a wide range including groceries also costs more in Oregon than most states. The only major cost of living category that runs less in Oregon is the cost of utilities according to the Missouri Economic Research and Information Center (information was derived from Council for Community and Economic Research).

Oregon students have slightly lower test scores than students in most other states according to the National Center for Education Statistics. The teacher to student ratio is considerably higher than the national average. Despite those two lower scoring factors, more Oregonian students have attain a high school diploma or college degree in the last few years than the national average, according to the US Census Bureau.

The quality of health care in Oregon is slightly lower than it is in most other states according to the US Health and Human Service’s Agency on Research and Healthcare Quality."
