I have a job opportunity and would need to move to a small town about an hour nw of Denver. It's tempting, but I'm hesitant to move there, coming from NC. Can any frens advise on the CO life?
Colorado is quickly becoming California. I've lived here my entire life and have no doubt out elections were also corrupt. The cost of living is sky high and even the small towns east of Denver are rapidly becoming overgrown with people trying to get out of the city. I've always loved Colorado, but if I had an opportunity to leave, I'd leave. As lalahemingway mentions, Boulder is the worst place in Colorado to be, they actually charge a fee if you order drinks with sugar, it's a sugar tax, that's one example. Boulder is so woke they can't blink. If you come here, avoid Boulder like the plague and make sure you are offered a well buffered salary because people are renting bedrooms in their houses for $1,000/month & 1 bedroom apartments run $1500-2000/month.
I would want some idea of where I would be moving to! I believe they are mostly in the cities, and those that hate it are moving east to our little rural areas and since some of these little town boards have corrupt individuals they are trying to destroy our way of life too. I will forever believe that Colorado is mostly Republican and they had to cheat to win here the same as Arizona, Georgia & probably most of the other states. I think it depends on the town you're expecting to move to & whether u will commute to Denver. If u give me a general list of towns in the area, I would be happy to tell u if any of them offer a chance of good living. Our farmers are incredible and fighting to keep their land, so not every place is a train wreck! Boulder though, hard no, not even a chance you could find happiness there!

Thank you for the info. I figured it was probably full of leftists. Didn't know if they were just concentrated in the cities like here in NC.
