Review of Colorado Sprin,


Nothing but a trashpit...
Star Rating - 3/6/2018
I was going to move here to be closer to my sister but I left after only two months. During which time I received a parking ticket (for being legally parked - parking guy had to admit he was wrong in traffic court), being pulled over and forced to show DL, registration, and insurance because I was out driving at 1PM (broke no law, mind you, just got stopped for being out late), and being in two separate traffic accidents (one on Colorado Avenue, another one on Cheyenne Mtn. Blvd.). In addition to that, the cost of living is absurdly high (which is why so many people there live on the streets and panhandle on corners), jobs pay minimum wage or at the most $10 per hour even if you have a Master's Degree, and all the nice hiking places are now home to all the drug-addled weed-smokers. And, yes, I don't doubt the teacher who was treated well always had a job - the education system is horrible and instead of firing the bad ones, the just shuffle them around from one school to the other like they don't get what's wrong. Moved back to my small Kansas town and I'll never leave again.
