Review of Grand Junction, Colorado


A nice place to live
Star Rating - 4/16/2012
I lived in Grand Junction for 4 years until 2010. It was a great place to be raising my small children since there is a huge amount of things for a family to do. The weekly farmers market is a big event, there are too many city and county festivals that are very fun for kids to even list them all. I was also pleasantly surprised at the high quality of many of the elementary schools. I thought that people were very down to earth and especially friendly in general and more so than any other place I've lived. Also, I never worried about traffic or parking. To save the best for last, the hiking nearby is phenomenal!
