Denver is a great city with mostly good weather, and wonderful views. I see people on this site complain about how they thought it was in a valley. Well it's not, and if any of these people had ever looked at a map they'd know! But who says only a city in the mountains can be pretty. If you're not a closed minded person you can find ...

I love the proximity to the mountains. I don;t care what other people say about the air quality, it is by no means any worse than any city in the United States whose size is comparable. Loved Lower-Downtown district, or Lo-Do as they call it.
Denver has a great nightlife for singles with tons of bars and clubs. Tons of outdoor activity due to having the mountains less than 30 minutes away. All major Colorado ski resorts are 2 hours or less away. Can't tell you how easy it is to skip work on Friday to do a three day ski weekend.

I liked Denver because there is so much to do. You can go to the many wonderful malls, Six flags (amusement park), Water world, e.c.t. The reason I didnt like Denver so much is its not very safe for the family. Especialy down town Denver.
Denver is a wonderful place to visit. The people are warm and the mountains are beautiful. This only thing I disliked was the highway signs (confusing).
