RickRN is on a distinguished road
Default Don't move to Denver

Denver is too crowded. Too many out of state plates roaming around the metro area.
The unemployment rate is sky high at 5.6% and rising.

Denver has had four snowfalls in about 4 or so weeks, so be prepared. Snow= colder temperatures=costly heating bills=roadway accidents=slower commutes=wasted time.

housing forclosure rates are skyhigh. The Denver housing market held its own for a long time, but ever changing times and major shifting economy has slowed new homes sales and existing home sales. Remember: Most people don't want to sell now.

If you're looking to start a business-good luck. There is a lot of competition here.

If you're moving here(Denver) mainly to ski or frequent the mountains, you might want to think twice. The major highway(s) leading to the mountains oftn close due to dangerous conditions AND I-70 usually moves at a snails pace on most weekends and holidays especially during a big winter storm.

If you're from a state that has a hands free law in effect, don't expect Denver to follow suit. I think Denver has the fewest citizens with bluetooth hands free technology. Welcome to the world of dangerous cell phone drivers.

Denver has a cripled DMV. The DMV is so backlogged with driving infractions/violations right now. Right now there are thousands of dangerous drivers in Denver and the state of Colorado who are driving with **** poor driving records because the state is overwhelmed. There are only 17 hearing officers to boot. Also, the DMV computer systems are very very outdated helping to create more of a delay. Supposidly, the only drivers that lose their license almost immediatly is a driver that has committed vehicular homicide while other "bad" drivers get to drive around racking up points on their license with no penalty.

You will spend plenty of money on auto repairs for damage and/or alignment problems suffered from driving on very poor road surfaces.

Yeah I like Denver -much more than San Antonio for example. The traffic on the outskirts is horrendous though and the housing prices need to come down more, but its one of America's coolest cities.

omg!!!!! they've obvioulsy never seen lake effect snow or an "noreaster"..... if they think the snowfalls in Denver are bad I'd hate to see them get stuck in one of THESE kinds of snowfalls.

HAHA!

I myself am moving from Chicago to Denver to get away from congestion and crappy winters!

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY DENVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
