sperling views of the situation of imigrants in greeley is wrong allot of people have the misconception that iligal mimigrants get a free ride on govermont help and it is not true you kneed a social security number for all types of help if you dont have a social security number the goverment will not help you and it has to be your social security number i am so sorry that you are not able to get the help you need but if you were so happy were you lived why didn't you stay there instead of comming to our wonderful town of greeley co and by the way the people who do get goverment help are the one who have children who are born americans the help is for the children not for the iligal imigrants.stop being so bitter and love your neighbor as you love your self and God will help you also.

Greeley, CO - 1/17/2008
I lived in Greeley from 1961-1985 and near there in 1999-2003. It did not smell very nice because of the nearby stock yards and Monforts meat processing. If you like cold, snowy winters and hot dry summers, it's a great place. If you read the comments section of the local paper on line you can learn alot about the people there. We liked Greeley, our familys are buried there. The best thing about Greeley is that you are very close to the mountains. Fishing, skiing and camping were
