I am considering moving to Delores - 5/18/2013
Hi, I am looking for feedback about the climate here, what is the normal for humidity levels year round, is Dolores a very sunny town? Also, does it snow a lot if so does it melt quickly and are the snows dry over the wet heavy type? Are they few bugs lol I don't enjoy these. Are the people kind and neighborly, helpful if need be? Are there many home town businesses? Would you consider it a unique place to live and a fun place to do outdoor things?
Thanks kindly to any and all that can help with my questions add anything about this part of

Can't make up my mind about Dolores, CO - 3/7/2010
I've lived here 3 years not and I can't decide if I like it or not. It is by far the most beautiful place I've ever seen, but I'm from a large city and when I can't get what I want when I want, it frustrates me. Medical assistance is also scarce. The local hospital is not really up to par but there is one about 45 minutes away that does a great job. It's difficult to get a doctor's appointment when you really need it - they refer you to the ER. Shopping is done in the next town (about 25 minutes away) and there is some bigger shopping about 45 minutes away and a mall 2 hours away. It's a great place for seclusion and I do like the school - there is a lot of student support. The teachers are great! There's not a lot of crime either. Drugs and domestic problems are most of the crime here - but nothing worse. It's a safe place to live and fruit grows wild (apples, plums, cranapples, pears) - you can pick them at the park! It's a love/hate relationship. I can't find anything

We love it, but it isn't from everyone. - 2/14/2010
Dolores is a very small town of less than 900 residents, and we live on the fringes of it. If you love privacy, beautiful surroundings, and can deal with the plow bills in the winter (roughly $1,000 - $1,200 per season) then you might just love it here. Also, unemployment in this county is one of the highest in the state of Colorado. Your best bet is to already have an established, mobile profession, or to have / start a home-based
