Comment on Colorado’s governor vetoes landmark ban on rent-setting algorithms
ToastedRavioli@midwest.social 6 days agoHonestly if you love Colorado its worth considering moving to Kansas or New Mexico, in my opinion. Better to live a normal life within a spitting distance of the mountains than it is to try and make it living in the hellish economic environment of the mountains themselves. All the good aspects of living in the mountains are basically unavailable to you unless you are a millionaire.
So many people working three jobs to stay afloat out here, there is no time to have any quality of life

I live in Oklahoma, Kansas or New Mexico wouldn’t be any better. I was thinking of moving to Colorado and live in a camper until I built of the funds to buy and off grid property. I own my home in Oklahoma (its not much we got lucky and bought it in 2018) but I hate it here but love mountains and enjoy my time I spend there. I been to Yellowstone three times and would to live near there but jobs are not plentiful and there spots that have nothing for hundreds of miles.

I get what you mean. Tbf at least they do have their own mountains in New Mexico, but I imagine living in them might as well be as expensive as Colorado. But you could probably live closer to the mountains in NM for a reasonable price, and be closer than OK is to the Rockies in CO.
Southern Colorado appeals to me but its just insanely priced out. Even houses in Lamar, nowehere near the mountains, go for well beyond what you would pay to live in Kansas 50 miles away

Thank you for advice but fucking not moving Kansas nor New Mexico. Would hate living there more than Oklahoma. I want to be near Yellowstone both those states don’t do that and Kansas there nothing there.

Is there a reason you dont want to live in Wyoming? Wyoming is more reasonable to try and live in than Colorado, as is Montana (although only slightly less so in MT)
