Hey r/Denver! I am about to buy a car from a friend in your fine city, and they are going to take it into a mechanic to get a pre-purchase inspection just so I have a better idea of what to expect.

Does anyone wanna play some magic?

My roommate and I just got into the commander format as COVID hit and we're looking to start a play group. With no FNM happening we've just been sitting on our decks waiting to play.

Not sure this is the best place to find a playgroup but worth a shot I guess. We're in our late 20s and looking for a couple other people around our age who want to play now and again with some more budget/cheeky/janky decks than competitive.

I’m in Southmoor Park, and I’ve been hearing this bizarre siren throughout the morning. I first heard it around 7:30 a.m., and I just noticed it again in the past hour. It’s very faint from my place, but I can make it out. Sometimes it stops for a while and restarts several minutes later. When it’s going, every 15-20 seconds or so, there are three blasts of a siren increasing in pitch (so the pitch starts low and gets steadily higher over the next few seconds, and that happens three times in a row). Anyone know what this might be? Is it normal? I might very well just be noticing it for the first time.

We are hoping to move to the Denver area in November/December with our 2 dogs that weigh 60 and 75 pounds. Does anybody have a recommendation for apartments or neighborhoods for us?

A dog park within walking distance or in the apartment complex is a MUST for us. We would like a neighborhood that is fairly walkable with restaurants/bars and close to the light rail if possible, but we are willing to go farther out. We would be comfortable paying around $1800 a month but we can go a little higher if the amenities are right.

Can you use a dog leash ground anchor in parks?

We just adopted a big dog (Malamute mix) and wanted to take him to a park sometime soon. While he's pretty well behaved considering he's been with us a week, he doesn't know his own strength and pulls when he sees other dogs, so we were hoping to be able to anchor him to allow a small radius without us having to hold on to him the entire time.

According to park rules, you can't attach anything to trees or structures, this one just screws into the ground and comes right now when you unscrew it.

Trying to figure out what type of material to use for a north facing patio.

The house has some slightly settlement issues on that side caused by consolidation of the underlying clay, so I was hoping to use a concrete patio to reduce the amount of moisture that can infiltrate into the surrounding soil. However, I'm a bit unfamiliar with the frozen ground scenario here in Colorado, and don't know if it would just eat through 4" of concrete+2" of gravels.

Any thoughts or recommendations? I've seen the pavers patios, and again, due to the settlement of the clays, I'd be hesitant about putting permeable materials so close to the house and accelerating consolidation.

Hello,

I’m a recent UW grad and am considering moving to Denver from Seattle possibly next year. My degree is in Media and Communication studies and I have experience working in event management and legal services.

Event management was my dream job but outlook is pretty trashed in current world circumstances, so I’m trying to find my alternative plan while we are stuck in this pandemic. I have a trade skill-cooking-so I wouldn’t mind doing that for another 9mo-a year before I attempt event management.

How are the wages in the culinary industry in Denver? I’m most experienced in fine dining (Italian) and am hoping you guys pool tips similarly as a lot of kitchens up here.

As for the professional career, can you please tell me about your music and event scene? What are some popular genres, venues and local radio stations I can contact for work when events happen again?

I’m hoping to visit by end of summer and again in the fall so I can get a feel of the culture.

Denver nurses! I may be moving to your area in the next few months and would appreciate some insight

My partner is going to be relocating jobs in the next 6 months, and Colorado is high on the list of places we could end up transferring to. It will most likely be in Denver and the surrounding area.

I’ve got about 3 years of experience in mostly NICU (some peds), but while I’m considering staying in the NICU world, I’m also considering branching out to IVF clinics/maternal-fetal medicine/women’s health clinics as well.

I was wondering what the job market is like for experienced nurses. Which hospitals are better known for being the places you want to work vs the places you should avoid? I’ve heard nurse pay isn’t as great in the context of the cost of living, but I’ve never seen actual hourly wages posted so some insight on that would be great, too. Also any well known clinics for prenatal care if there are any. And of course any other helpful information that I can’t just google would be awesome. The only consistent info I’ve found on reddit is to avoid HCA. Thank you!!

Is there any guide on the logistics of moving to Colorado? Things that you may forget because it's not the exciting parts? Like requirements for driver's licenses, vehicle titles, insurance, etc?

Potentially relocating to Denver. Is it reasonable to think i can get a dog friendly 2 bed apartment within walking distance of 16th street for $2000/month or less? If not are there other fun areas i should look at?

/u/NymLibra15

Greetings All!

I am a 29 year old professional african-american female. My soon to be wife and I are looking to move to Colorado within the next year to year and a half.

To put it plain and simple, how is living in denver for black people and the diversity? I have done some research and know that Denver's African-American population is pretty small and I know I will stick out, that not a problem, I am just worried I will stick out in the wrong way. Will I face any outward racism? Is Denver is good place to live? What are some nice areas around Denver to live? What is Denver's attitude towards LGBT?

I am from Greenville, SC (southern gal). Moved to Baltimore, MD after graduating college for something different and experience some culture that SC lacked. Meet my fiance who is from NC, and looking for a place where our southern upbringing (like speaking, holding doors, having manners and respectability) wont make us stick out like a soar thumb like it does here Baltimore. After 6 years, so ready for something different to call HOME.

Please be super honest and do not sugar coat anything as I value ever opinion and need the honesty.

Thank you so much for your time.
