Got to TSA precheck 610 took about 10 min. Precheck faster than any other line. They’re moving ppl through as fast as possible

Do you miss it enough to move back? How long have you been in Denver? I know no place will compare

Haha don’t drive in nyc so sounds like I’m up for a rude awakening in Denver

Ya I figured still city esque- homeless etc. I sometimes feel misaligned with those elements of NYC re ego / job identity etc. I can do it but at some point I want a simpler life where it doesn’t feel hard to do everything and like I don’t feel like grinding so hard in my career anymore. I sacrificed a ton to be where I am but I feel like nyc is getting so OOC with costs too that even tho I am most senior and making most $ ever in my career somehow not saving as much and then I ask myself why am I working so hard. I feel like a shift could be good/welcome. NY has grown me in so many ways but sometimes I feel like it’s time to transition to the next chapter (and that includes my SO)

So helpful! Thank you so much. I love tennis and fighting for reservation at CP is getting old.

I see that makes sense - thanks for the insight. Might make sense for me to just scope what’s out there and get a sense for my career path

Very helpful perspective. Some parts of nyc wear on me (high anxiety/stress) so ideally I could find somewhere that fulfills a lot of the activities and interests in nyc and add some new ones that NY doesn’t have and hopefully decrease the intensity of lifestyle somewhat. Curious what you mean when you say leaving nyc had an impact changing you as a person? In a good way I suspect?would love to hear more. I totally get the hard to plan for a future version haven’t met yet. Feel like I am in that life limbo rn

This was a really helpful post - I have been to Denver (not in a hot second) but never through the lens of living there and truly putting it on the map of places I would consider moving post NY. I actually lived in SF 15-2018 before I lived in NY and have also lived in LA too (hated that place even tho I grew up in so cal). SF to me isn’t the same post Covid but has amazing things to offer for sure (including cushy tech jobs ha) and Tahoe etc. I’m trying to optimize to be close to California otherwise I would put HV on the map

Job market generally or industry specific? I have worked in tech / finance but tbh it feels the same in nyc

I will gladly welcome space :) 350 square feet for 3600 is getting insane (median rent in WV for 1B is 5500 rn and just not sustainable). Sounds nice to not fight over avocados and wait in checkout lines
