Used to (born and raised) and hope to again one day. CO is awesome simply put. Huge geographical and geological diverisity over the state, mountains are wonderful, and home to a huge array of outdoor sports summer and winter. Denver itself is a very nice cosmopolitan city with a lot of really great rest. and other things to do. Western slope is really nice as well.

Living costs are very reasonable. Only negs IMO are water costs are very high due to the tremendous growth in Denver and the West; & UV index is really high due to high altitude. I feel like I'm always getting cooked outside, where at sealevel I can be outside a long time w/o getting sunburned.

The climate is semi-desert. Dry but not too much like AZ or UT or NV. Winters are a trip. Snow can run Sept to May, but lots of days where its 75F in January and everything melts. Its not like the E coast where snow stays for months until spring.
