No.Colorado Economy? Relocating

U.S.A. Colorado

Published

My family and I are really interested in moving to Northern Colorado early

2007. We visited No.Co in April we found it very nice and simple living. A lot of the locals say the economy is not very strong up there now. A lot of industry went to other countries so many people lost their jobs some would commute to Denver or it would take others up to 3 months to find a job. But what we saw while we were up there was a lot of 'building', new construction homes to retail shops. So, the economy can't be that bad right? Well I'm an RN (4 yrs) and DH is a Electrician (8 yrs). I hope we won't have trouble finding employment. A broker told me that high incidents of foreclosures and BK's there? Is this true. Thanks.

P.S. we are from So.Cali

Thanks dgross for two interesting links. I wasn't aware of the good news bad news aspect to Colorado employment before reading this thread. Like many, I have considered moving to Colorado...love the area. Concerned about cost of living and the cold. I sure love to ski, though.:monkeydance:
