Money magazine came out with another "Top 10" list of best small towns to live in...Best Places To Live 2008. Once again Fort Collins is on the list, this time at number 2.
Jenny and I would love to get back there someday. Great size for a town...not too big, not too small. Great quality of life, great outdoor scenery, and even pro-bicycle (many of the city streets have designated bike lanes along the shoulders.)
While the town is great it does have some drawbacks. It's over an hour away from Denver, so when you need a big city fix you have to drive a little bit. Also, the airport is over an hour and a half away, which can be annoying when you have to travel. Lastly, the cost of living is a little high compared to the job market. Unless you work at the Hewlett-Packard site, or at Colorado State University it might be a little challenging to find the right job to support your lifestyle.
Still though...Jenny and I would move back there in a heartbeat if the opportunity arose.
No surprise to see it on the list year after year.
