Unfortunately, I've lived in Colorado for my entire life, splitting the first half with Denver, second half in Colorado Springs. Monster says Denver is about 20% more expensive to live in than Colorado Springs, but I can't necessarily agree....but I'll tell you that every time I've done a calculation to move somewhere else, unless it's Podunk America, it's more expensive than living here....anyone truly interested, I suggest as others have....are you coming out on the week and going home on the weekend, or are you moving, if moving, connect with a realtor and check out prices of places and determine parts of town that you might want to live in, determine commute times, etc....these are all general things that any responsible person needs to do when looking to relocate anywhere in the country :)

I have been to CO and love it there, but the weather can be so unpredictable even in the month of April.. It can begin at 8:00 with sunshine and at 70 degrees F, and you could have 6 to 12 inches of snow by 6:00 PM – this actually happened a couple of years ago when I was there, and then next morning by 9:00 there was no sign that it snowed.. But it’s a lot better earlier in the year when you know it will be cold most of the time, and a little later in the year where its hot almost all the time..

A few weeks ago I posted that I have an opening at my company for a Remedy Developer with ITSM experience in Colorado Springs and the only responses I got back where asking where I was going. Is the remedy market so strong at the moment that everyone is fully employed, and happy where they are? Are there really not enough Remedy Developers in the market to support the current demand?....this is a good thing mind you, but I'm looking for my replacement and can't seem to find one...
