I like Cheyenne

I'm surprised by the comments I've read here. I grew up in Cheyenne, moved away for 2 decades and came back. Cheyenne was a great place to grow up and I was happy to bring my kids back to finish school. Cheyenne is a giving community, where volunteerism is the of the highest priority for most. The downtown is undergoing changes that are exciting to everyone. New restaurants and brewery's are slowly opening, along with events such as downtown concerts and art festivals. Morris House Bistro and the Chop House offer amazing food, with more restaurants coming. If you can't find something to do in Cheyenne you aren't really trying. They have millennial groups are involved in the community, and great tech jobs. If you are a qualified techie - you have your choice of multiple jobs. Even Microsoft and Green House Data call Cheyenne home. The school system still offers art, PE and music to all it's students, I think most take these privileges for granted. The housing fine-there is a lovely historic neighborhood, lots of new housing. Yes their is an area that is considered less desirable side of Cheyenne, but I have to tell you, the people who live their love the South Side, and have worked to revitalize it. They even have a new beautiful high school. The proximity to Ft. Collins and Denver is good. If you can't find it in Cheyenne, you can find it within 30 minutes. Oh yeah, I can get from my home to work in less than 15 minutes with little traffic. Can't beat that.
