This along with Denver's terrible air pollution are my main reasons for picking Dallas.

When will people learn! Denver DOES NOT have bad air pollution! Yes we get an inversion, but that does not mean our air quality is poor. In fact it is one of the better metroes in the US for air quality. We made these bad lists over 20 years ago, but that has changed! Please do a search, and you will see that Denver is among the good air quality cities, not the opposite! And yes, Denver is the better city in this debate! Dallas is twice as big of a metro, but does not offer twice the amenities! I feel we have the better weather and scenery as well!

Actually Denver is over 3 million, but I did not expect you to actually use the real numbers!

Compared to DFW, many cities are small in population.

But Denver is no slouch, it's one hell of a great city! But so is Dallas!!

I posted this before
Denver CSA roughly 3 million
Dallas CSA roughly 7 million

Difference = 4 million people

These Denverites like to compare their CSA numbers to our MSA numbers for obvious reasons. So now that that is cleared up. please continue.
