Can't possibly be worse than Deadver. Do you know why the Rocky Mountains lean eastwards??? Because Denver SUCKS!!!!

Denver is a huge city. Farmington is a medium to small town. I grew up in Denver area. Have lived in Farmington most of my adult life. No comparison! You won't find ala the "things" you get in a huge metro are in Denver but we certainly have all you ever need here. And housing is way cheaper than Denver. My brother lives in tiny 2 bedroom condo back in CO and I have 2 acres and a 5 bedroom house here outside Farm. We paid about the same price for our homes. I am not sure what the PP meant about platinum cards? Your money will go way furthur in NM. I don't know what was meant by that, I'm only guessing. Try Aztec, 10 minutes from Farmington, 35 from Durango, Co cheape in price and prettier than Farm. It is a working class crowd here but there is a lot of cultural stuff, music etc too. That is the crowd we run with and its here if you want it. The people are very down to earth and nicel. It's a lower pace of live than Denver.

It's an expensive place to live relative most other towns of it's size and culture. Check online for a plane ticket from Farmington to Boston for example. Denver to Boston is around $370 nonstop. Farmington to Boston is $777 with one stopover. It's the little things that add up. We're 180 miles from a decent airport, rail station, or interstate highway. Stuff just costs more by the time it gets here.

Are you serious? No seriously, have you seen a doctor recently? From Denver, Co to Farmington, NM -- it's like moving from the luxury condo to the basement. This is probably not a voluntary decision, you're being told you have to do this. It's kindda sad. Denver, CO, one of the most beautiful and growing cities in the U.S to Farmington, NM....known for.....alcoholism, crime and....I wish I was just part of CO!
