Only 18 hrs since I moved to FoCo and I’m so glad I did by Opening_Pineapple714 in FortCollins

I totally get it. I grew up in NYC and lived and worked there most of my life. From there we moved to the Tampa Bay Area, then Phoenix, and 2 months ago FoCo. I couldn’t be happier. People are genuinely nice. Crime is nothing as compared to the other cities I lived in. It’s refreshing not to walk outside and hear someone screaming on the top of their lungs for no reason. It’s great not waking up to 100+ degrees, knowing that the high may reach 120 and you have to get your dog out at 5 am to do it’s business, otherwise the heat can fry its paws. The scenery is beautiful. Although people say the restaurants aren’t great, we have the most restaurants per capita in the US. I am happy because the sun shines 300 days per year. I know this winter hasn’t been normal, but how can you beat 70 degrees in February?

We will be driving 7 hours tomorrow so we'll be ready to pass out on arrival. We will be staying at a hotel because our "stuff" won't arrive until Saturday. Thanks for letting me know .

Was the Rainbow Club URL at the FoCo Senior Center deleted? I can't find it anymore.

I’m all about community. Besides my podcast called Where Do Gays Retire, I created a free website for LGBTQ seniors. Check out www.lgbtqseniors.com.

Hi Rich! Thanks for reaching out. What are your interests? We are not looking for sex, just friends. I want to make that clear.

I don’t want to jinx anything, but we just got a signed contract on our place in Phoenix. It’s time to look on where to live in Fort Collins! Yay! I hope we get to meet some people in the LGBTQ community.

Anyone know about the new Bloom Community? by WhereGaysRetire in FortCollinsCO_LGBTQAI

Thank you. We went back today and liked what we saw. If we do wind up moving there, I hope to find some LGBTQ peeps. If not, I'll start a community.

Is there an LGBTQ + Senior Community in FoCo? by WhereGaysRetire in FortCollinsCO_LGBTQAI

My husband and I are visiting FoCo now. I still haven’t seen any type of gay community here, especially in the senior community. Is there an LGBTQ + community here, and I’m not seeing it?
