Review of Greeley, Colorado


Not impressed
Star Rating - 12/26/2006
I recently moved here from another state and I am throughly disappointed. When people talk about how beautiful CO is, they are not talking about this area. I have had nothing but problems since I got here. There are no jobs here. If you can speak Spanish, you are in good shape. A lot of the jobs require or strongly prefer bi-lingual workers. That is ridiculous. This city houses the worst school district in the state. There is no funding I guess and the kids don't even get there own books. They have to study in class and share there book with other srudents. One bonus is the cheap cost of living, which with the really crappy pay around here it is hard to even pay the cheap rent. This county also has the largest number of foreclosers I heard. I have been here for almost 3 months now and I am still waiting for assistance that I signed up for until we get on our feet and find good paying jobs. There appears to be not much of any help around here for disabled and poor people. Unless of course, you are an illegal immigrant.

Jennifer, sadly the job market in Greeley has been lousy for a long time. The public school system is a mess no question.
