what part of this is true and what part of denver isn't true?
Denver pros 1. very nice people 2. Denver is a HUGE sports town and people in Denver love the Broncos almost as much breathing 3. Coors Field is gorgeous 4.Denver has tons of parks 5. fantastic weather..never very humid and winter storms tend to blow over quickly for the most part 6. excellent stores and malls 7. Denver is not Chicago or NYC as far as rests but it still has a number of good rests 8. Denver is a pretty city 9. The suburban schools are almost all excellent 10. Denver has a nice cultural scene 11. Denver is an easy city to get around 12. Denver has a good job market 13. Denver suburbs are nice places to raise a family 14. many of the people keep fit and believe in living a healthy lifestyle. 15. many excellent colleges 16. very educated city 17. despite all the jokes about DIA, Denver boasts one of the nicest and busiest airports in the US. Cons 1. Denver has a serious air pollution problem 2. Many people in Denver love to tailgate other drivers 3. Denver has a serious homeless problem but this is not unique to many metro areas 4. home prices and rental prices are overpriced 5. taxes are high in Colorado, know that before you leave where you are living 6. Denver has a very crime rate in the non suburban areas 7. like many metro areas, Denver is battling a gang problem. 8. insurance rates are often very high for many people 9. Denver Public School system is a complete and total mess for the most part, the Denver suburban schools are vastly superior in terms of quality 10. if you don't like yuppies than Denver is not the town for you 11. many people who have lived their whole lives in Denver can put some people off with the attitude that Denver is the greatest place on earth, but for the most part as mentioned above most Coloradoians tend to be very nice. 12. many skilled and very educated people are underemployed because job competition in Denver is fierce 13. if you are not a Broncos fan you might find many of the Broncos fans to be obnoxious, but that is true of hometown loyalties in most NFL cities. 14.people whom rent aren't as well protected( rights wise) as they would be in other Metro areas.
Public Comments
- Seriously, this is about the 20th question you have asked. I'm begining to wonder if you even try to look things up. pros: 7. I don't know what that means. 9. One district in particular is excellent - Cherry Creek School District. Littleton is ok, but it depends on the school - some are excellent, some are ok. Lakewood has been trying to recruit teachers for years, so I'd worry about that one. 12. It's like anywhere else right now. Cons: 1. false 2. yes 3. not as bad as salt lake city or chicago or San diego (been to those places) 4. not much higher than elsewhere. 9. they are working on it 10. FALSE 11. just like any where else 14. that is untrue.

- well denver is pretty depending on what you are looking for....and it's a sport place but i wouldn't go as far as saying its like breathing and the city is nice but not huge and the malls are okay as well as coors field but the main thing about colorado is the rocky mountains its gorious all year round but the weather is okay its hot but not way humid and the winter can be cold but for the most part does blow over and in the mountains its always colder then the metro area but over all denver is not bad and as far as suburbs littleton, englewood, centennial, and some parts of denver is okay and if your on the higher end of life highlands ranch. the cities i mentioned have decent schools the farther north you go the worst ive gone to denver schools and they were not okay but littleton is okay so just look around are you moving or visiting? any other questions email me at teen7180 at yahoo.com have lived here for all my life and its pretty good
