I currently live in Denver and moved from the West Coast. Denver does suck -- not much to do. You really can't ski because you need to sit in hours of traffic on I-70 and most people are extremely passive aggressive to a point of being scary. Denver is like one large social clique. It's like that little town from Deliverance, but with taller buildings.
Denver was nice thirty years ago, but I recently visited and was disgusted by the way they have massacred the country side with cookie-cutter condos to accommodate all of the transplants from California who have brought their own way of doing things. My parents and brother have moved back out there (from greater Boston). The people are very different from the traditional values I am used to. It's too bad. I liked it there before all of California moved there and ruined it for all the locals and others from other areas of the country looking for a better life and to escape exactly what Colorado has become.
Denver sucks. I would never recommend coming to this city. The people are rude, the streets stink, and it is flat out disgusting!
Denver really sucks! I cant wait to get out of here!
Denver is pretty awful relatively speaking. It's a cow town, the clubs stink, the traffic is horrible, the beer is incredibly expensive. If you are looking for any resemblance to culture, it sucks!
If you can't find something fun to do in Denver you aren't trying. Whether clubs, art galleries/museums, or nature is your thing there is plenty to do. Getting around in Denver is easy -- there's no subway but Denver has one of the best public transport systems in the country. Of course going to ski can be crowded, but what do you expect when five of the top ten ski areas in the U.S. are all in the same area? There is good food, you just have to drive outside of downtown a little to get some of it.
The people in Denver are rude, self absorbed snobs! However, I have noticed that the Denver natives are actually very friendly and polite. Upon further research, I found that the majority of the rude and snobby people are actually from other places.
Denver is a large city with lots to do. But you're not going to ski here. You have to drive to the mountains to do that. There too many people there already.
Denver is my favorite city in the world. It's laid back. No matter where you are, nature is near. There are endless choices of great restaurants if you're willing to look for them. The microbreweries are phenomenal. People are friendly, but mind their own business. It's incredibly easy to navigate. Housing is affordable
It's growing, so there should be jobs there for you. There are great education opportunities, amazing weather, a plethora of cultural activities and sights. You should definitely visit, have an open mind and enjoy yourself!
My visits to Denver have been wonderful and the people extremely inviting.
Denver sucks, I've never found so little to do out here.
Denver is a growing city. Progression with almost everything can be seen. It's a safe place compared to other large U.S. cities. The vibe is right in the middle, nothing extreme on either side. Some really cool stuff to find here but you have to look.
