We moved from Las Vegas to Bailey, Colorado to be closer to my family who moved from Las Vegas a few years before us. Bailey is in the "foothills" of Denver but we're actually in the middle of the Rockies about 45 minutes from downtown Denver. We thought this would be the ideal place to live and raise a family but people in Colorado are no friendlier then the people in Las Vegas, the traffic is just as awful, there's crazy people trying to shoot up schools or blow up malls like every other month, there's a lot of "stepford" families and it's hard to make connections, if you don't fish, hunt or ski forget making friends, housing prices are still higher then average but we're not getting paid any more then average, more people home school here then anywhere I think because Denver's school system is in big trouble, it's extremely dry and flippin cold! I lived in Vegas for 30 years before moving here and heading back that way but probably to a little quieter town like Mesquite or Boulder City...at least there will be a lake close by.
