Broomfield is a nightmare. I stop at the mall every few months to buy underwear or "junk toys" for my kids. A person could die there and no one would even notice.

I for one would be horrified to see a home that sells in Boulder for $321K
The cheapest I see are $500,000 up---and those are the scrap off shacks that get bull dozed right after closing....

Well, in that price range it is mostly condos. But there are some SF houses just a little bit higher. Here are a couple examples:

This one looks really nice.
