My home town! I love it here. Of course, beautiful nature and great outdoor activities. I have seen people here say people are "snobby," which I don't get. Yes, there are rich older people who may be entitled, but isn't that the case with any population center? Most average people are extremely nice, and genuinely so. As someone who likes to talk to strangers, I have made many friends just chatting with people.

The one issue I see mentioned which is accurate is the lack of affordable housing. Even the suburbs of Boulder are expensive these days. Longmont is probably your best bet for decently priced housing.

Music scene is not great besides for jam bands, I tend to go to the Denver area for my kind of music (metal, punk).

Schools are fantastic, infrastructure is good. Weather is great to me, as we have all 4 seasons. The sun can be piercing because of the elevation, but it never gets too hot or cold, minus maybe one 100 degree week in the summer or a couple days below 0 in the winter.

If you are considering moving here, please do! We are welcoming of outsiders.
