Making the decision to relocate yourself or your family is an often nerve-wracking thing to have to do. Not only are there cost considerations involved in making sure you can afford to move and live in your new city, there are also aesthetic concerns about quality of life. Will the city offer activities you enjoy doing? What is the climate like compared to where I'm planning to move from? How about the commute time to and from work? Are there good schools and universities available at affordable costs? All of these are things you need to consider before taking the leap and relocating.
Fortunately, people moving to Boulder, Colorado have a lot to look forward to. Boulder is located in Boulder County, Colorado, and is also the country seat. If you like hiking or mountain climbing, you're definitely in luck. Boulder CO is located right near the foothills to the Rocky Mountains, making it an excellent location for outdoor activities. The views aren't too shabby either!
Socially, Boulder is known as being one of the most liberal cities in Colorado. Its residents tend to lean left on the political spectrum, which could be a definite plus for someone looking for a progressive environment in which to raise a family or make new social connections. Boulder is also home to University of Colorado's main campus, meaning there's ample opportunity to take in a debate, an academic lecture or even audit a class or two. If you have children, University of Colorado is the state's largest public university, and well worth consideration if you want to save money on in-state tuition.
Another nice feature Boulder can boast is its demographics. There is a population of a little under 100,000 people living within Boulder's city limits. This gives it both a small town feel at times, but it is also large enough to be considered a decent sized city. If big city life is something that's important to you though, Denver is a mere 25 miles away and quite accessible for a weekend or overnight trip. In terms of temperature, Boulder also can't be beat. Its winters are cool and snow does fall, but subzero temperatures are a rare occasion. Summers are dry and hot. Boulder's known for its sunshine, of which it tends to get approximately 300 days of per year. Overall, Boulder's a fantastic place to live for people with families or even young professionals who enjoy a small town atmosphere within driving distance of a bigger city.
