>>329006Not him, and I haven't read the "Colorado thread," but I have relatives that live there, and I've spent a lot of time there, and I would not want to move to Colorado.
Denver is a big, convenient city, only a day's drive from anywhere, but it's not a Western city. It's more of a Plains city, or a Midwestern city. Denver has more in common with Detroit or St. Louis than it does with any town in western Kansas, except it contains all the people from Detroit and St. Louis who thought that if they moved close to the mountains, they could go skiing every day.
As for the smaller cities, Boulder, Steamboat Springs, Breckenridge, Colorado Springs, from the Rockies on east, these days, they are little more than hippie colonies - Californian towns more than Western towns.
Add onto that, all the new liberal laws like the recreational drugs, more restrictive gun laws, mandatory for-your-own-safety style laws (no swimming in certain lakes, ever, or else you will be arrested), and the place is too far gone. Colorado is not worth saving. No way in Hell would I ever want to live there when there are amazing states like Wyoming, Utah, and Arizona nearby.
