Anyone lived in Denver?

We are thinking of moving there. How are schools there? Is the city nice? Is it easy to find good doctors? We want to have a place in the city and the mountains. What are the best neighborhoods?

Cherry Creek is lovely. University Park is also wonderful.

But be prepared to smell weed on a daily basis. And if you have teens think about how you might keep them away from it. It is just part of the culture and is just about everywhere in CO. On the billboards, in cute shops. Looking at the school parking lots, there are weed-linked bumper stickers on multiple teachers and students cars.

Nice areas are expensive

I lived in a duburb of Denver. I can't speak to the city itself but the surrounding suburbs have an overall vibe of small lots coupled with lots of open space and community space. It's an area that values the outdoors so there are walking trails, bike trails, and lots of sidewalks.

Real estate has gone up a lot, but the prices won't shock you if you're coming from DMV.

The mountains are popular and the roads or rather I-70 becomes quite congested in the winter.

Depending on where your job is located, there are people who commute from places like Conifer or Evergreen. The snow is variable in the area and elevation makes a huge difference. Evergreen could get a foot of snow while Denver gets 3 inches.

We had family move to Evergreen and while it's beautiful there, they think it's pretty remote. Lots of snow and takes a while to get places.
