Review of Grand Junction, Colorado


SET yOUR WATCH BACK 30 YEARS
Star Rating - 11/17/2018
A small, backward town lacking vibrancy or influence of being near a metropolitan area. There’s an unwelcome undertone to newcomers or new ideas. The town has good medical services, good biking, hiking, camping & nature access.

We moved to Grand Junction recently. People here are open to new ideas, as long as those ideas are in line with their values of treating their community and neighbors with common decency, kindness and respect. The only thing I don't like about Grand Junction is the winter weather. But this is such a great place to live that I'll gladly put up with the cool Colorado climate to be in this wonderful town.

Sounds like GJ doesn't want CA liberals who bring their failed European socialist values with them. This hostile crowd has already helped to turn CO from purple to blue, just look at the new influx of welfare junkies, homeless street dwellers, street urchins, aggressive pan handlers and dopers. I'm glad this message is easy for that unwanted Marxist crowd to see and feel, one Camden, NJ is more than enough.
