How would you rate Denver?

Those who have been, or live there, how would you rate Denver, CO?
I've only technically been to the airport in Denver, so I haven’t experienced the city yet.

So, what you're saying is that you're Illuminati?

2/10. If you like hipster transplants drinking garbage coffee while driving Subarus poorly, it’s the place for you.

Don’t see the hype. Colorado isn’t the only state with mountains so I don’t give AF

Gorgeous. It's the sunshine state.

I think it’s cool. It’s increasingly crowded and expensive but the outdoor access, climbing gyms, weather, food, night life, music scene, and fit women keep me around

About like I do vanilla ice cream or Melba toast

It’s a cool place. 14th street mall is more ghetto than it used to be. LoDo is pretty hipster. Their art district down there with all of the shipping containers is pretty weird. That said, it’s got some great views, I like the pro sports scene, tons of craft beer to try in the area, and it’s relatively nice.
I couldn’t afford to live there

It's nice here. Expensive but nice.

It’s under construction… Just rubbing it in our face this time

Not as good a city as Colorado Springs or Castle Rock. They’ve let Denver go to shite. Downtown Denver is nice, but overrun by bums. The airport is about 30 miles from downtown. Colorado Springs is much nicer.

It would be close to my last choice of places to live in Colorado but close to my first choice of favorite “big” cities if that makes any sense. Melting pot of people. Mostly white and Hispanic. Almost anything you can think of to do or eat. Cool backdrop of mountains. All the major sports teams. Red rocks nearby is cool. Being an hour or 2 drive from world class skiing is a major plus for me. I don’t like their politics in Colorado but damn what a beautiful state.

Denver is like a 7. Surrounding areas are like a 10

I moved there for exactly 1 year. It's a nice place, but there are some downsides.
It is expensive across the board. I came from Austin, which is also expensive, and I automatically paid 15-25% more for everything.
Not only is it expensive, the quality of everything is lower. From grocery items like a rack of ribs and an avocado, to restaurants. You leave spending more than you wanted to, and it's inferior to anything you're used to elsewhere.
The people kind of suck. Granted I moved there at the height of covid, but people aren't very friendly.
Is it the worst place in the world? Far from it. For outdoor recreation, it is a 10, but from an overall lifestyle city, it's more like a 6.

It's one of my higher ranked big cities in the US. Nice downtown with plenty of things to do. Its appeal has taken a hit recently as the homeless population has really grown. Denver has always had a homeless issue but it's gotten much worse in the past 10 years.
If I'm moving back to Colorado I'd prefer to be on the western slope in a smaller town.

Downtown Denver really wants to be like downtown Seattle or Portland. They are working hard to get there though.
Posted on 8/1/22 at 6:10 am to SaintlyTiger88
I usually leave Denver as quickly as possible and head to the mountains

A very good singer songwriter.
“Leaving on a Jet Plane” is underrated, imho.
Music Board tho?
