I have lived all over the world. The USA is IT for me. :thumb:

Overseas - Bavaria near the Danube somewhere.

US - The only other place I would consider other than KC or LA is NYC. But I work for a movie studio and live with an actress so my hands are kind of tied. If work was no issue I'd consider anywhere up the coast.

Since we're talking Colorado I'd live in Durango if I could afford it. Weirdly I'd consider Park City, UT but I like to ski a lot.

I live in SoCal and I'm not sure they don't.

Not weird at all - PC is awesome. Would love to have a place there.

I have to wonder how many of those saying Colorado have looked at housing prices there. I'd love to live there, but it only took about 5 minutes of looking at homes online to eliminate it.

With that said, we're actually looking at Cheyenne right now. It's an hour from the front range and housing is a little less outrageous. It's still more expensive than Pigsknuckle though. Guess that's the downside of living in one of the most affordable housing markets in the country.

BECAUSE WE CAN'T ****ING AFFORD IT

Looks awesome. Might have to make a stop there when I check out Panama. That's exactly what I am looking for.

Yeah the cost of living is very reasonable. I know several people formally from Billings living there now and they love it.

Taking costs into account, if I was banned from Denver (the city), I'd live in ...

Palisade (Nice little town with lavender crops and orchards that's near a wicked big mesa, and isn't in the mountains with the major snow)

Frisco (Little mountain town near the Continental Divide. It's very high which means snow, but it's pleasant and you can climb 1,000 feet or so inside town if you want exercise)

Salida (Little town in the high valley that shouldn't be anything special, but it's got a great art and culture feel. It's getting to be Denver-area expensive, but it's nice.)

Golden (It's in the metro area, but it's got a small-town feel with lots of amenities.)

Fort Collins (It's a bigger city, but it's a college town with a nice feel.)

Fort Morgan (It's a small farming town on the eastern plains, so it's cheap and it's convenient to stuff in Denver, plus it's big enough to have some services.)

There are lots of nice resort towns, of which Vail is my favorite. But the prices are stratospheric and I don't want to pay $1,500,000 for a 1-BR condo.

Well, yeah, that's a potential factor.

I'm already working on setting up a base in the Cayman Islands. It has first world banking and internet. It rarely gets hit by hurricanes... It's CST time zone... the beaches are pristine. It's a 2 hour flight to Miami... 3.5 hour flight to Houston.

I am going to look for an income property in an area like that next year. I am going to lose the one I have now and locking down a nice house with a pool on the water with a dock sounds perfect to me.

This looks great. I'm going to check into this spot... Love the location.

Why's that?

Pull yourself up by your bootstraps and improve your life.

I'm in Spokane right now. Not my kind of town but seems like it's up your alley. It's "almost" in Wyoming.

Smokey as shit due to the fires.
