So something that hasn ' t been addressed here is proximity to work . Since you have a job that requires you to physically be at work , solid transportation will be something to consider . Work doesn ' t get called off here as much as you might think . Be sure if you go with something outside of town you have a reliable vehicle to get to work in adverse conditions . Also a quick bit about the good trout fishing . Be aware that the fish here are nothing close to comparison to what you guys have in Michigan . The fishing is good , but expect especially in the Boulder area to be pulling 1012 stockers maybe something in the 20 range on a lucky day . I think we ' re unfortunately starting to see the after effects of what the flood did to the insect population in the local streams , smaller fish and what seems like less of them .
