$400k buys you a fixer upper dump in a neighborhood where car break ins and gunfire are common at night. If you want to live in a safe neighborhood plan on spending at least $650k for a home.

Dopers, Karens, Traffic, Crowded public spaces, inflated housing prices.

[rickforse]

"We don't talk about politics on this channel", BUT...if you're conservative don't event THINK about moving here!!! LOL! This IS how you will be treated in Colorado if you're consrvative.

[jasongreif]

It was just as pricey as Denver last year but now, I see about 200k price difference. That is tempting. Denver metro is just ridiculous.

Starter single family homes in Denver are no less than $500 and those are dumps, if you can find it. 600-700 for anything habitable. Similar dumps seem to be about $350 in Colorado Springs, it seems low 400k is the habitable range.
