Is Colorado basically just a more urban Wyoming? (moving to, paint)

I lived in Wyoming for eight years and there are PLENTY of high peaks. Apparently you never got off I 80 or I 25.

Agree with you first statement. Minnesota is wet and flat.

Per your second statement, I have hiked the Wind Rivers, I’ve been to Teton and Yellowstone, and I’ve kayaked the Encampment River. I’m not saying Wyoming is devoid of mountains. They’re just different.

That's Wyoming in a nutshell.

Yes, mountains are different wherever you go.

My point exactly, and I believe, the answer to the OP’s question.

I've found CO to be a more educated and expensive version of WY.

I don't particularly care for either state. Both are non-diverse, mono-cultured, and backwards.

Thank GAWD it's not.

NYC is the outlier, not Denver. If that is the size of city you enjoy, then stay on the coasts. It's not that cities don't exist inland, but the gigantic urban belts tend to be on or near the coasts.

Colorado and Wyoming have similar mean elevations. The difference is negligible so on that front yes the two states are very similar.

Outside of that Colorado is a wetter and greener state with a very different culture than found in Wyoming.

I'd say the two most similar states to Colorado are actually Utah and New Mexico.

Culturally Utah is not like Colorado with its predominantly Mormon population.
