*Travel Tips>>>Denver Travel Tips

We are thinking of moving to either Phoenix or Denver. Any suggestions?


Travel Info
My wife and I are very active and love working out, skiing, biking, and want a great nightlife and great restaurants. That is our thing---eating out when we can.

What do people think between these two choices? We have lived in Vegas for over 8 years, so I know the heat pretty well. But looking for a great town to settle down and really get the real estate careers going.

Travel Tips
I have lived in Denver before and boy, do I love it! I also like Phoenix.
For your choices, it is really a matter of what each of these great cities has that you want. For example, skiing. Denver has a lot of great places that you can go to and explore (Loveland, Breckenridge, Arapahoe Basin, Winter Park, Steamboat Springs, Eldora, Aspen, Vail, Beavercreek, and more).
As for AZ, there are less places to go skiing (Mt. Lemmon, Arizona Snowbowl, Sunrise Park, Elk Ridge, and AZ Nordic center) - that said I don't know how long these are in operation.
Denver is known as the "most fit state" and the reason is that there are many things to see and do. What I like the most is the cultural diversity you can enjoy in festivals, restaurants, and acquaintances. However, Phoenix is a bigger city with wider streets, and with more corporate organizations.

Since you want to get your real estate career going, it probably is better to find out which of the two cities has a better market. I know for a fact that Denver is having a hard time in the arena. I don't know about Phoenix.

Someone has already mentioned about the cold weather in CO. I personally don't think it is that cold in Denver, since it is not nestled between the mountains, the snow on the road is melted by mornign but you will be able to enjoy it in the grass, trees,etc. with no problem on the roads, unless you have a storm. Yes, the winter is cold but not harsh.

Good luck to both you and your wife.

Go for Arizona! (No I'm not from Arizona!)
Ok well for me i would pick Denver why u ask? Because hit has all that you and your wife are looking for. You can go skining and biking in the mountains. Nightlife is ok and the restaurants are good but watch out for those prices. But if you do choose to move there better get used to the cold weather.
my choice would be metro Denver, couldn't take 100+ degree heat. The winters heare are no big deal
My recommendation would be to check with the state realty boards to find out where it is easiest to requalify. I thought Vegas was the "hottest" market in the country right now!

By the way, Denver has some good restaurants but it's not a dining mecca in my opinion. If you want four star you had better look elsewhere. There is lots to do especially if you like concerts and festivals in the mountains.
you love to ski and you are thinking denver or phoenix? is there even a question???

go castle rock, colorado

and work for keller williams in littleton.....
Thank Arizona would be best, at least it would save on heating bills, yet the pretty snow indenver makes us jealous. Have fun no matter where you go.
