still a lovely city, either you have moronic soccer moms and their poo poo spoiled kids on one end of the town or you have literal murder happening in the other end of town

I just moved to Denver a couple months ago, it's been good. I live right in Denver, I would recommend it if you can find a place in a nice area. I'm close enough that I can walk to sporting events, museums, grocery stores, liquor stores, etc. I work from home though, so I barely ever drive, can't give much advice on that.

Definitely buy some weed, it's so weird to just go into a store and buy it... Also, you can't buy liquor or wine at grocery stores, only liquor stores, which is stupid. Make sure you don't buy beer at the grocery store, it is 3.2%.

edit: Downside to living in Denver is the cost, my rent is really expensive for the size of my apartment, but I think the location makes it worth it. Trying to deal with traffic at big events or downtown is generally a nightmare, so I like walking everywhere.

Yo. I need a place with a decent amount of room out here since I have lots of furniture in storage. I'm a very quiet tenant.

Also, do you allow pets or smoking in your anus? I mean, I can always go outside to smoke, but my cats are butthole-only cats. I don't want them to pick up fleas.

you hear that from seattlers, portlanders and californians too. imo the real problem, we should just wall off all the other states to prevent midwest and east coast fucks transplanting fucks from coming anywhere close here. go make baltimore or something a white hipster mecca instead you guys have plenty of room.

Generally, the closer your are to the mountains, without actually getting into the mountains, the nicer the area.

Aurora has some areas that are okay, but most of it is poor and dirty and you won't like it. It's too big to take advantage of Denver metro transportation stuff, but too small (or poor) to support the type of parks and outdoor stuff that the rest of Denver has. It's like the worst suburb. The Denver everyone talks about is not in Aurora. (It's prolly more Lakewood)

I would look up where you're working, then check Google maps in the morning and afternoon to see what traffic looks like surrounding that location. Note that 470 is a toll road on the eastern part of the city.

CO Springs sucks. Everything south of CO Springs is essentially empty, I guess it's kinda pretty. The eastern plains suck. Many people in the mountains are just dumb rednecks who use the excuse of "well I live in the mountains" rather than putting any thought into their actions or words. The Western slope sucks because there's so many Mormons that if you're not also Mormon, you get shunned by all the Mormons and everything will be terrible.

baltimore doesn't have any weed stores also they riot frequently and have rats the size of puppies

Bay Area had the dot com bubble which made traffic good for a few years.

Probably biggest 2 changes over the last decade were Google starting up in mountain view and also Apple going from dying company to a strong company thanks to the iphone.
