Review of Boulder, Colorado

Star Rating - 4/24/2007
It is expensive to rent or own property in Boulder. If people there aren't Olympic athletes or Nobel Laureates, they can often look and/or act the part. Many recreational opportunities and very, very beautiful. The climate is typically sunny and mild, with some very cold and very hot spells, and incredible winds. Any "lakes" to speak of are either more like ponds or constructed reservoirs without few trees to be seen. Buses are good. Restaurants, live music, and some other cultural opportunities can be better than in most places of it's size, and even excellent in some cases. It can seem like one of the least diverse populations in America in that it is, overall, caucasian and affluent. Denver and it's offerings are within 45 minutes driving. An overall very pleasant place to be if the above is what you're after.
