Colorado where should I live and is there any reason to not live in Colorado? |
Travel Info If I move to Colorado from NJ do you reccommend Longmont or Loveland Is it really nice to live in Colorado Travel Tips Why are you limited to those two selections? Is it for a job transfer? I would choose Loveland, because it is closest to Ft. Collins. But, if you could choose anywhere in all of Colorado, I would choose Ft. Collins and here is why; it's voted as the number one place to live in all of America... http://money.cnn.com/popups/2006/moneyma... http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/... Oh yeah, and the second part of your question that most of us forgot to answer: I don't know any reason NOT to live in Colorado, but I can name a couple of reasons why you SHOULD live in Colorado, and I don't even live there. It's called SUMMER and WINTER. Actually, we are buying a second home there right now, and coming from Florida, I can tell you a third reason we are attracted to our new home; lower taxes. I thought the yearly tax bill was actually their monthly tax bill. Ridiculously low compared to Florida. Oh yeah, evidence... WINTER snowtubing, sleigh rides, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, ice skating, skiing, etc. SUMMER concerts (these guys like their outdoor concerts), biking, hiking, boating, horseback riding, golf, festivals galore, white water rafting, fishing, train rides, etc. Others If you have to move to Colo. I think I would rather live in Loveland as it is about the same distance to Greely or Fort collins I definetly would not go to Denver for any reason. Blizzards! Try Greenwood Village. Stay away from Stapleton and Park Hill...there is a lot of gang activity in those areas. Westminster is nice, Arvada is nicer. And for the love of God, stay out of Lakewood. Denver proper is actually nice and trendy. There are a lot of beautiful lofts being built by Coors Field, you may be able to watch the games from your place. Call me when you get to town, I'll buy you a Starbucks! Speaking of lofts, I just got this brand new loft in Greenwood Village for an AWESOME price! As far as living in Colorado, I would recomend you live in South Denver. Highlands Ranch, Lone Tree, Littleton, or Parker are the areas you should look at. You can find sone nice places in Aurora as well. You will love it. I moved here four years ago to attend school and I planned to move back East, but that's not happening becuase I have made Colorado my home. It's gorgeous here. longmont is kinda big and more city like but loveland is pretty small and nice. i would prefer lovelan but thats just me! i no it not a choice but parker is really good! it about 45 min from the city and 11/2-4 hours 2 ski areas depending on where u go. its a fairls small town w/ good schools and not much gangs. its about an hour 2 longmont and 11/2 hours 2 loveland Loveland is better but Colorado Springs is better than that. The mountain towns alike vail and aspen are ok if you can afford that. |
