Relocating to Colorado!! Help

Just moved from Colorado Springs last year. The altitude is killer. Spent 4 years there and never got used to it. It's pretty but personally I don't miss it.

Loveland is a great town. I live in Fort Collins. I moved from Dallas 12 years ago and haven't left. The schools are good in the Loveland area if you have kids. The cost of living is a little more reasonable in Loveland than Fort Collins. It doesn't have the CSU students causing a ruckus...LOL. Anyways, this a beautiful area and I think you will really like it here. Best wishes!

There are a lot of outdoor activities you can get involved in. Skiing, snowboarding, hiking etc. There is a really nice lake and parks in Loveland.

Beautiful area, I visited this past summer and fell in love! So... ummm.... take me with you!

Arid and dry. Mountains are stunning but I think if I moved there I would miss the colors of fall and the green-ness of midwestern summers.

Weather was fantastic, though -- even with high temps, the dry climate makes it tolerable. Plenty of sunshine, and lots of outdoors-friendly areas. Biking and hiking trails EVERYWHERE!!

Loveland is an awesome smaller town. (I lived in the area for 15 years and am praying to go back after I graduate from seminary in May) It has a small town feel, but is pretty close to Denver and all of the city things it offers. It is in the plains and has a great view of the frontrange, and is pretty close to the mountains. The weather is 1000X better than SoCal and a 100,000,000X better than just about anywhere else. It can snow 2 feet one day and be 70 the next day with no snow on the roads, very low humidity and 300+ days of sunshine.

We've visited Colorado a few times. My favorite mountains to drive through is the ride from Estes Park to Loveland. We couldn't find something for our camcorder in Estes and Onstar took us to Walgreens in Loveland.

I've lived in Colorado Springs since 94 and wouldnt trade it for anything in the world, you get used to the altitude in no time just be sure to drink lots of water (which is good for you anyway)!
Enjoy all the pleasures it has to offer and you'll never want to leave, there is something going on somewhere all the time!
We get nice weather most of the time and 360 days of sun, how can you beat that! The winters here in the Springs are not horrible and it passes before you know it, the best thing about winters is out of the blue you'll get nice days where all you need is a hoodie at best just to let you know winter will pass soon! Its AWESOME!!!!

COLORADO

I live in Colorado Springs also. The thing about Colorado is you need a bit of all seasons in your wardrobe.
They are right, it can snow with thunder and lightning and it can rain while the sky is blue. 70 degrees is heard of in winter and the next day it will be 25 degrees and sometimes in the next hour. So, if you dont mind the weird weather and the altitude you will love it.

Learn to ski.

Ive lived here all my life..I know how to ski but hate snow...you dont have to ski to live here!!!
