Review of Grand Junction, Colorado

Grand Junction versus the eastern slope.
Star Rating - 6/18/2012
Grand junction rules. I lived there from about 2000 to 2008, left and moved to Boulder and Longmont, and am now moving back (building a home in the Redlands). I find GJ to be a very vibrant, beautiful, and incredibly healthy place to live. Plus, it's 2 hours from everywhere cool (Moab, Aspen, Ouray, etc..). Truly the center of the universe. Longmont is twice as big, but has half as much shopping opportunities and probably 10X more crime.
