I don't know how Oregon taxes its people regarding municipal bonds.  If the 
state taxes you on munis outside of Oregon, then you need to find a bond 
fund that invests only in Oregon bonds.  I don't know of any, but I'm sure a 
Google (or your favorite search engine) search will reveal any that exist.

As far as equity funds, you want a fund with low turnover.  But I think I 
would look at diversified portfolio of exchange traded funds (ETFs) that 
mimick an index such as Spiders (SPY).  These are traded like stocks with 
little turnover, low expenses and the opportunity for long term tax rate if 
held over one year.
