With its majestic mountains, delicious craft beer, and plenty to do outdoors, there are a lot of reasons residents love living in Colorado<\/a>.<\/span>
\nWhen Katharine Lee Bates wrote the <\/span>America the Beautiful<\/span><\/i> line, \u201cFor purple mountain majesties above the fruited plain,\u201d she was probably talking about Colorado<\/a>. While this Rocky Mountain state is best known for its mountains and world-class skiing, Colorado<\/a> is really a mix of deserts, canyons, and grasslands with the Arkansas River cutting through it for good measure. Nature is one the greatest attractions in this beautiful state, but the friendly people, the high quality of living, and the delicious food and beer scene make living here truly a treat. It\u2019s not hard to see why the population of Colorado<\/a> is exploding.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n

    The Vibe: The Midwest Meets the Mountains<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Colorado<\/a> is comprised of friendly people more interested in climbing mountains and drinking craft beer than focusing on the typical stresses of life. This laid-back culture has made the state very appealing in recent years, as younger crowds from all over the country have flocked to rapidly growing Colorado<\/a> cities like Denver<\/a> in pursuit of a life that\u2019s simply more fun. If you\u2019re looking for a state that\u2019s got a growing economy, plenty of outdoor sports, and some of the most spectacular natural attractions in the country, Colorado<\/a> is calling your name.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Local Flavor: There\u2019s Always a Reason to Celebrate Here<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      With tons of sunshine and a vibrant tourism industry, the state of Colorado<\/a> is constantly throwing some sort of party. From the long list of world-class concerts hosted at the famous <\/span>Red Rocks Amphitheater<\/span><\/a> to the many Oktoberfest celebrations spread throughout both tiny picturesque mountain towns and the big cities, there\u2019s always something to do. Two of the most unique events include the <\/span>Winter Carnival<\/span><\/a> in Steamboat Springs with ski jumping, chariot racing, and a crazy fireworks display, as well as the <\/span>Pikes Peak Marathon<\/span><\/a>, a foot race in which runners race to the summit of Pikes Peak\u2014an elevation of more than 14,000 feet\u2014and back down to Manitou Springs.<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n

        Cuisine: Game Meats and Green Chili<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        People from all around the world are attracted to Colorado<\/a>, making the food in this state as diverse as the people. With all the local wildlife, game meats are very popular\u2014expect to see bison burgers and elk sausage on the menu on a regular basis in this state. Colorado<\/a> also has excellent Mexican food, especially the green chili. Something that\u2019s often featured as a condiment as well as a soup, green chili gets put on everything, whether it\u2019s being ladled over a massive breakfast burrito or topping the famous Colorado<\/a> \u201cslopper\u201d burger. Every recipe for this spicy sauce is a little different, but they\u2019re all delicious. If you\u2019re daring, don\u2019t forget to try Rocky Mountain oysters. Mostly a novelty nowadays but still something that\u2019s worth sampling. Here\u2019s a tip: They don\u2019t come from the sea.<\/span><\/p>\n

          Nightlife: The Folks Around Here Sure Love Their Beer<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          \"8<\/span>
          \nWith a mix of ski towns that burst with people and energy during the winter and a growing           Denver<\/a> nightlife scene that seems to double every year, it\u2019s hard to go wrong when it comes to finding some nighttime entertainment in Colorado<\/a>. The people in this state love being social and they love drinking local beer, meaning there are always plenty of people out and about. If you want more of a big city experience, Denver<\/a> is your best option for both local watering holes and upscale dining with neighborhoods like LoDo, Baker, and the Highlands leading the charge. However, if you\u2019re looking for something a little more low key, you\u2019re never far from a great brewery in Colorado<\/a>,\u2014there are over 200 across the state.<\/span><\/p>\n

            \n

            Weather: Sunny Days with a Side of Snow<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Coloradans are just as excited for blizzards as they are for sunny days, so it\u2019s hard to complain about the weather in Colorado<\/a>. With warm, dry summers and some of the sunniest days in the country year-round, it\u2019s no wonder people are always outside. Come winter, the first snowfall brings thousands of skiers and snowboarders to the state. Despite heavy snowfall in most parts of Colorado<\/a>, warm midday temperatures often melt away problems on the roads and the time-tested snow readiness infrastructure typically takes care of the leftovers. The average temperature in Denver<\/a> during the summer months is around 70 degrees, while winter months drop down to a still tolerable average of 34 (colder in the mountains). With enough snow for skiing and enough sunshine for warmth, Colorado<\/a> winters are actually the best of both worlds.<\/span><\/p>\n

              \n
            1. \n

              Cost of Living: An Affordable Hot Spot<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Despite the huge number of people moving to Colorado<\/a>, prices have stayed relatively low, especially outside of Denver<\/a>. While Denver\u2019s uptick in popularity has driven the state\u2019s average housing prices way up, there are plenty of affordable cities in Colorado<\/a>. Places like Colorado Springs<\/a>, a city with close to 500,000 residents has a median home price of $330,000. South of Denver, Pueblo boasts a median home price of $195,000 while Thornton is close to Denver<\/a> and a cheaper alternative to the city with a median price of $393,000. Hot spots like Boulder and Vail are expensive, but there are plenty of places around this state that won\u2019t break your bank.<\/span><\/p>\n

                \n
              1. \n

                Sports: There\u2019s Always Something to Cheer For<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                Snow sports aren\u2019t the only thing that have people cheering in this state, Colorado<\/a> is also home to a large range of professional and collegiate sports as well as the <\/span>U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Training Center<\/span><\/a>. Denver<\/a> houses a team in each of the big five professional sports\u2014the <\/span>Broncos<\/span><\/a> (NFL), the <\/span>Nuggets<\/span><\/a> (NBA), the <\/span>Rockies<\/span><\/a> (MLB), the <\/span>Avalanche<\/span><\/a> (NHL), and the <\/span>Rapids<\/span><\/a> (MLS). College teams like the <\/span>CU-Boulder Buffaloes<\/span><\/a> and the <\/span>Air Force Academy Falcons<\/span><\/a> in Colorado Springs<\/a> also make for a great afternoon at the big game. There\u2019s always someone to root for in the Centennial State.<\/span><\/p>\n

                  Nature: The Greatest Outdoors<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                  \"8<\/span>
                  \nThe state greeting \u201cWelcome to colorful Colorado\u201d couldn\u2019t ring more true with beautiful natural attractions stretching to every corner of this state. Home to 58 mountain peaks over 14,000 feet tall (more than any other state), over 30 ski resorts, over 40 state parks, and four national parks, there\u2019s always something to do outside in                   Colorado<\/a>. Even just driving through the state can be jaw-dropping. Beautiful mountain roads like Loveland Pass make high altitude scenes visible for anyone with a car, while the Pikes Peak Highway takes visitors to the summit of one of America\u2019s most famous mountains. This is one state where you\u2019ll have no problem getting a breath of fresh air.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
