Review of Highlands Ranch, Colorado


It's Rockies; what more do you need to know?
Star Rating - 6/26/2008
Colorado has a plethora of activities for the outdoor enthusiats. This is a haven for cyclist, runners, hikers, campers, rock climbers, fly fishing, skiing, snowboarding, boating (several large resevoirs with boat marinas), etc...

The cost-of-living is on the rise but with more than 200 parks within the Denver city limits you can always find something to do outdoors. Have a dog? Great! Denver is a very dog friendly town with numerous off-leash dog parks to be had.

Many people think of Denver as always under snow come winter time but nothing is further from the truth. It will snow in the evening, morning and by 10 AM most of it will have melted (unless of course we have a blizzard or two :)). We actually have more sunny days that sunny San Diego! And being a mile closer to the sun makes winter days quite toasty most of the time.

The quality of life in Denver is hard to beat, most have a laid back attitude towards life, and within minutes you can be in wilderness that makes the city life seem very far far away.
