[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Denver. So boring and ugly[/quote]

Really?! I’m from CO so I’ll admit I have a soft spot for Denver but, while it may not be the best city I’ve ever visited, I can’t see it being truly the most depressing town someone has ever visited.

A friend had to spend several months there for work, and she said it was dirty.  I was surprised because I think of CO as progressive and environmentally sound.  I guess I was wrong.[/quote]
Portland? Seattle? LA? San Francisco? These are all "progressive" places that I also found to be incredibly dirty. I found Dallas and Charlotte to be extremely clean.[/quote]

I live in Seattle and can confirm that Denver is dirty in the same way Seattle is. Not necessarily depressing to me, but definitely dirty in a way that doesn’t seem to bother people, which makes it especially unnerving.[/quote]
I don’t think Denver is dirty (grew up there and visit often) but it is dusty in a way that the East Coast isn’t. Denver is also a big city and I suspect people who don’t like it spent most of their time downtown which is not Denver’s best showing. The neighborhood around the major parks (excluding civic center) are lovely with great food, museums, bars. [/quote]
