I think that the consensus is that one shouldn't move here until employment is secured.

livinlife13, there is a wealth of information on this forum that addresses many of your concerns, including employment, schools, cost of living, affordable rents, good neighborhoods, etc., etc., etc. There have also been discussions about whether or not one could live in Denver without a car.

Please send some time looking through the various threads on this forum to get yourself educated. You say you want to live in Denver to "get away from family", but that's an awfully big leap from Massachusetts without any idea of what you're doing. There are tons of places in the country that have lower costs of living, which it sounds like you need. I agree with Homogenizer that you need to figure out where you and hubby can get jobs. If you can't get work, then nothing else matters.

we chose denver cause we both are very out door people and we both would like the change, im just wondering what parts i can look at for what we need... apartments that are around 850 and somthing where theres nightlife and of course parks for the kids..... i just dont know where to start looking, if someone can juss point me into the direction i need to look i would apreciate it

I just moved to Denver so I can't help you as where to live but just reading a little about you I sound very young and I think it would be a bad idea to make such a move to any state at the moment. You have no credit, you didn't mention work, doesn't sound like you have any money saved. Have you even been to Colorado?

I am single and I have family here to live with and I have no dependents to worry about. Why don't you stay put for a couple years until you can afford to make such a move.

This should be where you start. What is affordable depends on your income. Where the best place to live will depend on where you are working. It starts with the job.

With respect, they're not helping you because your grammar and stated values reveal that you're ghetto, but their culture is such that they have to do this degrading dance. From what I've gleaned to be the local perspective, you're an undesirable, but to maintain the facade of their perversion of friendliness they can think and believe that someone like you is undesirable but they can't explicitly state it.

Believe it or not, they've done you a huge favor. It's much worse in person.
