Denver Overview | An informative introduction to Denver, Colorado 

I’m moving next summer 2 hours away from Denver so I’m trying to see how it all is gonna be I’m moving with my closest friend in my life to live with him and his dad until we find a apartment to get and my friend already has a 2014 dodge ram 1500 there so we’re all set on a vehicle and a job because his dad owns a construction company that goes all over the us and we’re gonna work with his dads company for a while so I said all this to ask how is apartment’s up there I’ve never been to Colorado or Denver

@@Tb12345 Average rent is around $1700 per month in Denver, winters get really bad but not like in the Midwest or East Coast as the mountains are a barrier somewhat. Colorado Springs is pretty good as they have a great zoo and parks system plus they have microbreweries and the Springs has around 485,000 people in the city limits and around 750,000 in the metro area. Fort Collins is pretty good too.

@@joememphis1571 ok so I’ll be around 2 hours from Denver moving with my friend to his dads for 2 weeks while we find a apartment either in Denver or around Denver maybe

I wish coming there am in Atlanta

Nah denver sucks with the homeless and the rising crime rate prices. The altitude of the air and the legalization of marajuana although that's a state thing not a city

JUST wait to you see how many HOMELESS are here tents everywhere

its just a fcking airport.

I've had the misfortune of flying through DEN. I wasn't prepared for the chaos of the unintuitive labyrinth of that airport. The signage is poor, and the layout is confusing. The zig zagging TSA line was the longest (both in time waited and number of people) I've ever been in. Pre-check was closed, and it was only 6 pm.

Denver has the third busiest airport in the world! That should help clarify things a bit. I found the airport beautiful and immensely huge 😮!

The demon horse will live on in infamy

It's evil.

I live here...be sure to come visit!

Colorado is beautiful in the summertime. During winter it’s too cold unless you’re an avid skier/snowboarder

Hello how are you doing today and happy Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄🎁🎁

Yeah it really is a great American city! Thanks for the comment!! I always look forward to what you have to say 😊

I'm not sure of the current statistics but I remember for some 30 years up until 2015(as that was the last time I checked) that it had the least amount to of people overweight in the country

He didn’t cover the real Denver. The homelessness the druggies that follow you or beg for money

Thank you!! And yeah I have to imagine the food will be better when it reopens

Thanks so much!!

You can also get some great skyline of the mountain views from watch Denver Broncos games too! The announcers always talk about it lol.

Thank you!!

@@CityGeek You're welcome!

Thanks for pointing that out! I’m actually going to Denver in June so I’ll have to see it from there

I actually doing mind going from 225 onto 70 west in the mornings. That's kind of stunning too as the light really starts to hit the mountains in the background...stunning!

The view from southbound I-25 into downtown is a great angle - it makes the skyline look denser than it is.

I did a timelapse from Denver to Vail.. please watch :)

chicago

Yeah I’ll definitely do Vegas at some point. Thanks for the tip about its history!

I'm planning to move there later this year. What can you add here that caused you to leave the area?

It's on the list 😀

very expensive, bad food, and the airport is amazing

That’s what I was thinking! Want to rewatch intro to compare skylines 😉

Not yet but I will!

@johnaddis4472: Jacksonville is so racist. Hate that place.....

@Expired_Snak: I'm not sure how long you have been there, but Denver is a foodie town. There are TONS of good restaurants there. That is one of the things that most people say about Denver. What level of cuisine are you going for? As far as mid to high-end restaurants, Denver is great. If cheap, fast food, is your thing, then I can't help with that...... Denver even has great fast casual restaurants.

@janellestevens2316 I eat upper mid to high end all the time. I could go to Ruth's, urban farmer, or fogo every week, green seed or flower child every other day, Chipotle or sweet green is my go to in general, and hopdoddy is prolly the best burger joint this place has, but it gets old, and if i want something filling, decently portioned, and below 20 bucks, its unheard of around here esp mexican food, for the amount of latinos and Hispanics here you'd expect actual decent Mexican food, even my mother straight from Guadalajara says she's baffled by the Mexican the food here, its half assed and white ppl eat it up without question. There are some unique tasty restaurants for sure, for sure, all I did for the first 2 months was eat all around the state, travel time is zero issue, me being from Long Beach. There are a few places I hold near and dear to my heart that have the best bang for your buck, like bourbon grill In denver (great post leg day food) or tibet kitchen in boulder ( shaptak is a great post workout meal and i get to take my golden to the chataqua park after) and green seed for its bacon fried rice and custom options for online order with all the veggies you want and a fried egg that comes with it for under 16 bucks!!

I know! I see that a lot of stories use photos of Denver that are from the 80's and 90's. What the??!!

@lordjobe1724: If you have traveled to ANY city of a decent size outside of Denver and Seattle you will see that homelessness is a problem across ALL of America! I am not talking about small TOWNS, I am talking about mid to large size cities. If you think Denver is bad, check out Los Angeles, Austin, Phoenix, Philadelphia, and San Francisco! I could go on, but you should see for yourself. Also saying that you see homeless on EVERY CORNER in Denver is a huge stretch of the truth. Downtown Denver is pretty nice to walk. You will see homeless people scattered throught any downtown area, but homless encampments are usually concentrated to certain areas. They are unvoidable in the U.S. Of course there are places to avoid in Denver like everywhere else. The problem is that the cost of living is sky-rocketing everywhere! High prices, growing mental illness issues, and drug abuse are the problems, and it's all everywhere!

Every big city has a homeless problem! Portland/Vancouver metro area it’s everywhere-sad 😞

@@janellestevens2316outside of kensington philly has no homeless

lakewood sucks. nothing to do unless you wanna buy fentanyl at a middle school. golden and arvada are dope though

@mikeanderson9266: Denver is one of the sunniest cities in America on average, sooooo. The crime is no more than any city of that size. If you don't like living in a city that leans left, and it bothers you that much, then move to one of the poverty-stricken, cracked out red states. I'm sure no one in Denver would blink an eye...... I used to hear right-wing nut jobs complaining all of the time in Los Angeles. I don't know why they go to California because it is no secret that California is a blue state, and has been FOREVER so I say LEAVE! But the nut jobs won't leave because they know what they are gonna get in most of the red states!!

@thepsyc_one4245: What a liar. You are going beyond exaggerating.

@@janellestevens2316maybe on carry a gun but the rest is right. denver is based on social status so no one wants to know who you are, they're too busy with their introverted rich person mountain dream

Lies! 🤦🏻‍♂️

@@latino_Godit's true unless you're somewhere cool like westwood.

@@latino_Godbut you probably think anywhere outside of Lakewood or RiNo is a shithole

@@bigballsgaming42069 you’re not making any sense

What’s boring about it? Denver actually has many things to do.
