Review of Denver, Colorado


Denver is an overrated, snobby, crime ridden cowto
Star Rating - 4/18/2006
This city is so overrated! It has changed a lot over the last ten years. Whites are now the minority in Denver, so brush up on your Spanish. Its very racist here. Whites with whites, brown with browns, and blacks with blacks. Each to his own. Crime has escalated over the last several years. The roads are subpar, except for the T-Rex corrider. The city has a bypass that charges 1.50 for every three miles, and its a two lane road. People drive under the speed limit, and don't use turn signals. Most of them drive as if they are star gazing. Don't even think they will move over if you need to merge or pass. This city is in hail alley. More hail storms than anywhere else in the USA. You'll see when you pay insurance. Enjoy cracked windshields from the dust storms and trucks? you've found your place! Club's and bars close at 1:30, its the law. People really think this dust bowl is god's gift on earth. People are so snobby, they won't say excuse me or thank you. Talk about a fashion tip. Everyone dresses like they are going to a rodeo. Downtown is filled with bums. Literally, over 12000 homeless in the city. (Saw one shooting up heroin on the street in downtown the other day). You will see them on every street corner, along the graffiti'd up buildings and walls. Its a dirty city that does not practice litter control. North side is all blue collar and shacks. Aurora is now minority capitol. The only nice parts are the Denver Tech Center, and overrated snobby Highlands Ranch and Littleton. Enjoy your weather? Just wait a day and the temperature will change 50 degrees. What an overpriced, overrated dump, unless you enjoy yuppying around downtown like some hotshot or love skiiing. I am counting the days that this city is in my rear view mirror. Hopefully, I can leave without requiring another alignment, or some robocop pulling me over for going 60 in a 55. Keep your overpriced dust bowl.

So true- I had to laugh about the driving too- going under the speed limit is a passive-aggressive control fetish practiced most by " natives". These "natives" think they are superhuman by virtue of being born in CO. So ridic!
