[QUOTE="VENOM1, post: 16332734, member: 23090"] We lived in Colorado for 10 years. My wife is a native. Although I lived north of COS, I was constantly down that way as I worked PT as a fly fishing guide for my uncles outfitter. What’s been mentioned above is spot-on. I’ll add a few other things I find important that haven’t been listed. - Very religious part of Colorado as well. I’ve found almost equally as compared to military. I’ll let you decide if this is a pro or a con. - I know this was mentioned but thought I’d provide my 2 cents. Real estate and rental properties have sky rocketed in price over the last 12-15 years. Where majority of the rest of the USA saw the economic downturn of 2007, majority of Colorado didn’t. Plus, with the shear amount of people moving to Colorado, the new home builders cannot keep up. This is especially the case in Denver where offering $20-30k above asking price is the norm. In the 10 years we lived there, we bought and sold 3 houses, each was in an “up and coming neighborhood”, made a ton of money on each with minimal investment. - Next to Montana/Idaho, the outdoors doesn’t compare. It’s the single biggest thing I miss from living there. - I’ll also say that traffic, everywhere, is a nightmare. Absolute nightmare. Year around. And if you get a large snow storm, stay home as you’ll be absolutely shocked as to how many implants from other states are a danger to everyone on the road. - I feel as though the 2A has gone down hill over the last 5-6 years. Initially, there was a small spike in our favor and now it’s definitely moving in the other direction. Colorado fell to number 40 out of 50 states in NRA’s best states for gun owners. Red Flag System was just initiates as well as a 15 round magazine limit. I’ve lived in Arizona, Colorado and Michigan. Of those states, on a pure lifestyle decision, Colorado gets the W. That said, if I was to move right now it would be to Wyoming, Montana or Idaho. PM with any questions you may have. [/QUOTE]
