I am completely shocked at these people. Please if you have not been to Denver or Colorado, you have to see it. You people are out of your mind to say that this city is dirty, uncultured, narrow minded! Where do you people come from anyway? One woman said the she likes salt lake city better because she can run in the park and see Muslims in full garb and Mexican cholo gang members? What exactly is a cholo gang member sweetie, i'm curious? You sound very educated and aware of the "real world". I just moved to Denver from the east coast. I have lived all over the world from being in the military and have lived in three major east coast cities for a number of years. New York, Philadelphia, and most recently Atlantic City. These people are making comments like , I am moving to New York as opposed to Denver. HAHA....please be my guest. If culture is that important to you, by all means you will get a heavy dose of it there. I like New York because there is so much to do, but talk about dirty?? Denver is a whole other animal sister. Good luck if you don't want a dirty city. I feared for my life on so many occasions just on my daily routine while living in those other cities. I am a sturdy young man too. Why would anybody in their right mind want to live in some of the most expensive cities in the world (New York) where you can't even ride a train at night without the looking over your shoulder? I am clueless. If you think that being some "I live in NEW YORK" type individual who is pretentious because they make six figures in Manhatten is cultural, please don't come back to Denver. Oh, and if you've never been there before, see how far your six figure income goes living on the east coast, and see how many jobs are available to you. Oh and I forgot the insane property taxes and the absolute filthy appearence of your "cultural city". Enjoy. Denver, is the cleanest, safest city in the states that I have had the pleasure to live in. So what if people like sports here and talk about it often, does that make them ignorant? I personally can't stand sports but if people here enjoy them, i understand. To me, people in Denver live their lives.It was rated the "thinnest" city in America, because people are out and about, not sitting around looking for the negative like you people. They are active, "truly friendly", and some of the most educated people of any city in the U.S. We have just about the highest college graduate rate in the states, so do your research before you call these people ignorant. Maybe you people who knock it are the over weight, over analytical, unconcious droids from the east (which is my home remember). Thats fine...but don't knock this town because people are sporty and loving life, after all, nobody forced you to move here, you chose it. So do us a favor and go suffer the rat race in New Yorkor which ever city you see as better.
