What BestPlaces Users Say about Colorado
Colorado is a popular state known for its beautiful landscapes, outdoor activities, and thriving job market. Many people are drawn to its vibrant cities and charming small towns. However, as with any place, there are both positive and negative aspects of living in Colorado. In this context, I will summarize comments from various users on BestPlaces.net about their experiences living in Colorado.
According to user Karen M., "Colorado is an amazing state with endless opportunities for outdoor adventures. The people are friendly and the quality of life is great." Similarly, user Dan R. describes Colorado as a "gorgeous state with plenty of opportunities for hiking, skiing, and enjoying the great outdoors." These positive reviews highlight the state's natural beauty and the abundance of recreational activities.
On the other hand, user Sarah H. shares a different perspective, stating that "the cost of living in Colorado has become unaffordable. Housing prices are skyrocketing and it's difficult to find affordable rentals." Another user, Jake B., echoes this sentiment, saying "the job market in Colorado is competitive and the cost of living is high. It's definitely not a cheap place to live." These reviews highlight some of the challenges and drawbacks of living in Colorado.
Overall, many users on BestPlaces.net seem to agree that Colorado is a beautiful and dynamic state with plenty to offer, particularly for outdoor enthusiasts. However, there are also concerns about the rising cost of living and competitiveness in the job market.

Wonderful Warm State (Thats people not Climate) - 8/25/2010
Colorado is very beautiful and green through most of the state. Its has the majestic Rocky Mountains running through it and they are so huge you can see them almost from anywhere in the state.Not only do i believe in its Beauty but also in its people. I can count on almost every experience with the social scene to be with kind warm friendly people that care how you feel while visiting and living here in this state. Even the stars visit Colorado for their old towns from the gold rush days and for their rustic ski resorts and light friendly social scenes.You could be a star like Goldie Hawn ans Kurt Russel and hang around our friendly people that know you like privacy and wait for you to make the moves to join in rather then harass you and stare making you not feel at home here. Having people like that care for our State just like we do makes me very proud. The fact that the stars not only come for fun but to own some of this grand land makes me very happy that we are not alone in

Colorful Colorado - 6/24/2010
I don't know what the Texas guy was talking about when he said that Colorado is boring and colorless. This is a state that offers a diverse community no matter which county or city you live in. It is a great state for those of you who like the "old western" type of life style out away from the City and once you get in to the city it offers a nice easy life for the hardworking American and is full of unique art, culture and aura. All and all Colorado is great if you want a simple life with diversity and friendly

Colorado - 5/4/2010
Colorado is cold and I don't mean the weather. I happen to be in my mid 30s and 2nd generation Hispanic. There is a lot of discrimination in this state. They don't like Hispanic people. I find this very humorous because who do you think cleans the roads and builds houses, Hispanic people. I don't find myself here very long. The people here are very unfriendly. Don't get me wrong the natives are very nice, but the recent transplants are very stuck up and think they own everything. What is up with all of the Texans/Californians/Floridians? Too many people from other states that give you looks. I had a different perception of this

Planning a move!! - 1/24/2010
WE are a family of four, two small children, planning to move to Colorado by late spring/early summer. We visited Colorado about 6-7 years ago and fell in love with the scenery. We are trying to narrow down our searches for the right town so any informational insight would be much appreciated. We currently live in Indiana now, love the outdoors(hiking, camping...) & musical scene has to be a must of the town (husband plays music), I currently work as a RN so close to medical facilities would be a plus. We are definitely searching for the right town to fit us for our new
