Wifey is buggin be to loosen my grip on Texas Living. So, Im entertaining the idea of a move to CO. I want to be near Denver(work,etc) but still be far enough away to feel like im not living in a city. Perhaps Boulder, or something. Being I have never been to CO, I would like to get an idea of what the prices of some of the houses are in a decent area. So, If anyone has the names of some good parts of town so that I can look them up I would appriciate it.

I highly recommend you find out where you are going to work first and then decide where on the edge of the great Denver area you are going to live. I have a coworker that lives north of Denver and works on the south end. His commute can take 1.5 hours each way if he runs into traffic problems.

i live in fort collins and there are tons of people who commute to denver for jobs, or thornton would be good too, but dont move to boulder whatever you do..

Thornton is cool, takes like 20 mins to get to the heart of downtown denver. "dont move to boulder whatever you do".. lol. Got that right!

The commute is not bad at all. For a city, its nothing like LA. I live in Littleton, very nice, and nothing like the city. Depends on what you are looking for. I go to school in the middle of the city, (CU Denver campus) and its less than a 10 minute drive to light rail, and 20-30 minute drive to school.

Highlands Ranch is nice, my family just moved here and its like a 10-15 minute drive.
