Anything is a step up from Massoftwoshits but you don't want to live anywhere near Commerce Shity, most of Westminster, or Northglenn.

There was a damned good reason I unassed 8 years ago. I spent my entire life there up until that point but it is nothing of what it once was. It's entirely too crowded and expensive.

I would go if you feel it is better, but I am just about certain if you look around you will find areas where the income to cost of living ratio is much better.

As far as the Denver AWB, the Bass Pro in Denver sells ARs, sooooo.....  You can count AWB charges on the same number of hands as CO mag ban charges.  

Open carry in CO.  Just NOT Denver.

North side (Thornton) has efficiencies and studios for reasonable prices.  Everywhere in the metro area is neighborhood dependant.

Colorado is being loved to death.  Too many people, not enough water, too many shitty east coast/west coast attitudes.  "Don't Californicate Colorado" bumper stickers were popular 40 years ago, it has since happened.

Colorado State income tax is 4.63% flat tax, plus deductions.

Commerce city is a rural farming industrial community about 15 miles outside of downtown Denver. You can avoid much of the Denver traffic if you want.

Denver AWB is only for the city and county of Denver, a tiny island in the heart of the inner city.

Come to the CO HTF!

Same.  I don't know how my brother does it.

Housing is retarded there. I had an offer, the rent/mortgage issue was going to make a sizeable raise into a lateral move.

Fuck that.

I have heard of the large influx of people to the state.

Don't live in Montghetto... It was a shithole the last time I was there a few years back.

Most folks I have talked to are in that first range rent wise. A decade ago rent on spacious 2bd was like 700-800 in many areas... Easily double that today.

Lived in Brooks Towers in downtown Denver for 4 years between 87-91. Loved the place, to bad it's gone the way of the liberal. Fantastic weather

I lived in Colorado for 17 years before moving to Texas.  I lived in Castle Rock.  Great place to live if you enjoy the outdoors and good beer.  Don't move there if you think you will find culinary heaven.  The other posters are correct, the food mostly sucks in the Denver metro and the Front Range.  Take advantage of the company paying for the move.  I loved living in Colorado and will move back when I can get out of Texas.  The weather sucks in Texas but the food is fantastic.

The first several years my wife and tried to spend every weekend in the mountains.  You will get tired of that; too many people and the traffic is horrendous. You will want to go the mountains to "get away" but  EVERYONE else on the Front Range is doing the same thing.  Anywhere along the I-70 corridor is over run with people.  I remember doing what I thought were remote hikes and I would always come across other people.  

Move to Colorado but don't fool yourself into thinking that it is paradise.  When I was living in Colorado, I traveled all over the U.S. for work (management consulting).  Colorado is the BEST place to live if you have to work of a living.  If you don't have to work for a living, there are most certainly more remote areas of the U.S. that I would rather live.
