    I’m from LA, grew up in Playa del Rey, lived most of my adult life in Santa Monica. I’ve also lived in San Francisco, Portland, Denver and now live in San Juan County WA. I lived in Denver for 4 years but sadly, 2 of those were covid years so my perspective may be skewed. I found Denver to be a lovely town, with very nice people. The demographic was young professional which might suite you. The weather isn’t quite as amazing as the publicity but it’s super nice. The snow is lovely, rarely sticks, and doesn’t really make a mess of anything but the traffic. It’s stunning. Even in the worst snow storm it’s not nearly as cold as Portland. 😂It does lack diversity, is missing retail variety, is a strange food desert, and actually is very expensive ~ and that’s from someone who’s from LA. Rents are high and very contract based. Don’t think you’re getting out of a lease early. 😂 If you want a car, which you really need, Car registration and insurance were off the charts. I mean mind blowing. Food costs are high and quality was poor (surrounding farms mostly farm cattle and cattle feed), energy costs were high, except petrol for your car, and personal services like hair, nails, Botox etc where off the charts expensive due to lack of competition. I paid more to get my hair done in Denver than I would ever have in LA, Santa Monica, or Beverly Hills. With a population of only 711 thousand people, vendors can charge what they want. The other shocker for me was that although I found the city of Denver super open and accepting of all kinds of people, 15 minutes out of town is not the same. Like in Oregon you have a super liberal city surrounded by super conservative, agricultural, state, so outside of collegiate areas, I heard and saw things that made my soul hurt. Luckily, you can live somewhere before you have to commit which is perfect and you just might find it’s your place. Turned out that this old lady needs the ocean more than she knew. ;-)

      I moved to Colorado (Boulder first) in ‘94 after the Northridge quake. Lived in West Hollywood. I’ve also lived in Atlanta and grew up in Morgantown, WV. Because of work and the fact I’m almost 55, I’ve traveled to almost every state. Whenever I come back to CO, it really feels like home.

      I've lived in Colorado my whole life. I'm 30 minutes from Denver, which is nice because I couldn't deal with the traffic on a daily basis, lol. It does seem to be growing in popularity. Even in my area, which was more rural growing up, it is now fully developed. Colorado is the best of all worlds, city, and country vibes with just a quick drive. It's always felt like home, but the cost, as you mentioned is making it hard for most of us natives. It's nice to hear others experiences though makes me appreciate it all a little more! Aside from the cost 😂

    @Chrispy_thee_Critter Před 11 měsíci +19

    Hey Taylor! So glad that you had a chance to experience Denver for awhile. I live south of the city, near Castle Rock. Here are my tidbits of info as someone in their 40’s that has lived here most of my life minus 6 years in Tokyo and traveling here and there to Europe and Asia:
    1. Weather - We are experiencing a REALLY weird moisture pattern this year. Most of the state is typically dry and brown for the summer and we’ll get wildfires and the like. So please be aware that the “green” you’ve just experienced is a bit of an anomaly. Also, wintertime is usually nice and the sun pops out to melt the snow, so we don’t usually get the Minnesota brown snow that lingers, although this past ‘22 winter we did. If you did buy a house here with a garage, try and make sure that the driveway faces south or west. It’ll be less snow shoveling. Haha!
    2. Home prices - When the great diaspora of folks from CA started moving here in droves with the housing meltdown in 2007, our housing prices jacked up so much. Now it’s a bit ridiculous since prices before then were really affordable. We also have tons of people from TX buying summer homes in the mountains. A common joke is that Crested Butte, CO should now be called Crested Butte, TX. Unfortunately, there are few places with cheaper housing left in CO.
    3. Food - Definitely relative to someone’s preference. People here tend to go out and comment favorably about a restaurant based on a place’s alcohol selection and vibe rather than the actual food. ☹️There are a handful of places that are pretty good, but not top notch so you’ll have to contend with the mediocrity. LOL! 😉 At least we finally have Trader Joe’s here.
    4. Medical and health/environment - my hubby and I have our own business and recently had to switch our health insurance to the ACA Exchange. Unfortunately, Colorado doesn’t give the self-employed a choice to opt into a private PPO plan, only HMO which in my opinion sucks if you want to go to various doctors at different facilities. Lastly, I think the slogan for CO should be “We have big hearts” ♥️ since I’ve always found people here to be friendly and outgoing as well as our hearts pump out a lot more because of the decrease in O2 being at higher altitude. I’ve known a few peeps with medical issues that couldn’t live here because of the elevation. Just keep that in mind with your migraines.
    Hope some of this helps and we’d love to have you here, girl if you so choose. Toodles and take care! xoxo Christine in sunny CO ☀️

    • @taylorwynn
      @taylorwynn  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Thanks for all the info! In regards to medical- do you have a single member LLC or are you a sole proprietor? That's wild they don't let you have a private PPO plan and that could potentially be a dealbreaker. Thanks!

      @Chrispy_thee_Critter Před 11 měsíci

      @@taylorwynn Hey girl! Sorry, it was a busy day and I wanted to take time to write back to ya. My husband Ari and I have two C-corp businesses. We started the first one in 2007 and United Healthcare granted us a group plan because we had a group of 2. That was great because we could do the PPO that we wanted and also choose various docs that were in-network regardless of the facility/hospital. Well, circle around to Sept of ‘22 and all of a sudden there was some new UHC stipulation that says “there must be at least one full-time enrolled W2 employee who is not the spouse of an owner/partner.” Thus, they dropped us despite the fact that they were OK with everything for the last 15+ years. Lame. 🤬 Our insurance broker warned us that UHC was on the warpath with small groups like ours and our golden ticket was up. 🚫🎟 Thus, we had to go on the Exchange for the first time and quickly found out about the non-PPO dilemma here in CO, despite the fact that we could afford a good plan. Some people suggested getting supplemental insurance like Aflac in order to pay for the out-of-pocket places that some of the people I see are at, like for instance the gals that do my mammogram (Yes, I could go to a new in-network facility, but then it’s newbies dealing with your boobs. 😵‍💫) However, I found that an additional $300 x 12 months for two people, didn’t quite add up and it was just cheaper to pay for certain things myself. I know lots of people tend to do an HSA for tax-saving purposes, but we haven’t explored any of those options quite yet. Personally, I had surgery during the Panini (2021) and other treatments and even though I can’t prove it, I feel like UHC red-flagged us because of it. ☹️ I have a feeling you may know about that all too well (virtual hugs btw for all that your bod has been through. 🥺🫶🏻I know that it’s been rough going for awhile now and I’ve always appreciated your drive to live your life the best that you can). So in a nutshell, my advice would be to talk with an insurance broker here in CO for specifics since insurance is clearly not my jam. LOL! One other thing that I wanted to mention: Even though DIA is going through seemingly endless construction right now, it’s pretty decent in terms of travel times and destinations. West coast is 2-2.5 hours away and east coast around 3. United brought back the non-stop flight to Tokyo/Narita which we take (Ari is Japanese and we visit for work and his fam) and there’s a code share Lufthansa/United non-stop to Frankfurt. Not sure on a direct to Paris CDG, but we’ve done the BritAir non-stop to Heathrow. So, the travel options are pretty decent here. Let me know if there’s anything else I can help with and appreciate all of your videos so much. xoxo Christine ♥️

    I lived in Denver for 10 years. Have also lived in Houston, okalahoma city and now Wisconsin (for snow). Denver by far was the easiest place to make friends as an adult. The south has hospitality but there is something about the people in Denver. They are very accepting. You can find your people no matter who your people are. But also they are very open! In the north people are very guarded and it’s harder to get to know people. I moved away from Denver for a guy. But it will always be my home even though I didn’t grow up there. Lifelong friends as well. And the vibe is just different somehow. Active people are active because it’s the way of life there. Denver is special. I visit often. And a hole in the wall ghetto Mexican restaurant is my first stop getting off the plane. I miss the food too.

    Absolutely love Colorado and Denver! Moved outside of Boulder in 2019 from the east coast by DC and never looked back. The culture and acceptance here 1000% true. People here are so genuine and kind, complete opposite back east, especially in the corporate world. Everyone is more understanding here and there’s a true work life balance. And it is so easy to make friends! I’m 35 and it’s so easy to join a hobby group or just meet people at a brewery or even on trails. Some cons for me are the fires and random extreme weather, but you just get used to it. Just like living in CA or FL you get used to earthquakes or hurricanes. Also yes, food is okay, but you do have to dig for the spots. I’m Asian and Asian food is lacking but it’s getting better! But overall my happiness and mental health have been so much better since living here. Literally just going outside and seeing the mountains while on a walk has been so therapeutic

    I've lived in Denver most of my life and every neighborhood is so different. Even the "rough" areas have tons of cool restaurants and shops. The traffic isn't that bad if you don't work downtown and you're able to avoid rush hours. Denver is super into its health food so that's the main stuff you'll find here. Skiing and snowboarding is not required to live here, especially when you live in denver. Definitely agree with people being accepting and easy going, there's a general agreed philosophy of "I'm good if you're good" so people just match vibes and try to be welcoming as much as possible.
    This was very rambly but I hope it helped. I love living in denver and I really think we're one of the best cities in America.

My question: What advice would you give to someone in my situation who wants to travel but doesn't feel like I'm in the position to do that? My son is 10 years old, and I want nothing more than to expose him to everything the world has to offer. Where should I start? Thank you Taylor! I'm so proud of you and everything you are doing!

    Definitely yes to all the pros and cons you mentioned! I was born and raised here in Denver as was my dad and I grew up hearing him say how much he loves this city. I never fully understood until I left. We have access to excellent healthcare. The view of the mountains (and from the mountains) never gets old. We have superpowers at sea level from all the existence at altitude! I’m sure every native of a growing city will say this but yes, I have watched the cost of living triple before my eyes even since I graduated from high school 12 years ago. At the time, $600 for an apartment felt like an impossible feat, now you’d have to have 2-3 roommates to pay that little. I know a million factors go into it, but we don’t know when we’ll ever be able to buy at this rate. And lastly, I think all the people you’ve heard shit talk Denver were trying to get you to stay away 😂 every single person I’ve ever met who’s moved here from out of state has fallen head over heels for this city. People come here and often stay.

      I personally don’t get the hype. I moved to Denver for a year and didn’t like it at all. Mediocre food, the mountains are a far drive, the homeless situation is wild and the people dress poorly. It’s just an ok city. I lived in Cherry Creek and loved the neighborhood but the city is just ok. Moved to Chicago and definitely like it a lot more than Denver.

    i’ve always liked the intro song, butttttt i will say that with the whole rebranding of you renaming the channel to Taylor Wynn i think maybe you could sample a few new options? your style has changed over the years in some ways so maybe it could be something to consider updating. been watching since leopard robe days and love you so much! ❤

  • @michelmcgregor1684

    My husband and I moved to Colorado from the SF bay area exactly 1 year ago. Besides being far away from family and beaches there's not a whole lot we miss about California 😂 because we're outdoorsy people Colorado has way more things for us to do and overall we're just happier here! We live between Boulder and Denver so the vibe is a little different and it has been difficult to make friends, unfortunately, but we're working on it. Can also confirm the airport is SUPER busy but if you have TSA pre check security is a breeze.

    Keep the song. It still works. 👍. I grew up in Denver but now live in Atlanta. I would jump at the chance to move back. I’ve lived many places but Denver is truly home. As soon as I cross the border, driving or flying, I just feel at home. I miss the beauty, I miss the people, the vibes, the smells, the sun, the outdoors.

    I moved to Denver from NYC 2 years ago, said goodbye to seasonal depression and I love it here! I am moving to Longmont in a couple of weeks because I work in Boulder, but I highly recommend Denver and anywhere on the Front Range! (I don't ski or snowboard either but I do horseback ride, which is fantastic in the west!)

  • @spookybard
    @spookybard Před 11 měsíci +2

    I feel like your intro music just matches your vibe. I think it’s perfect, not to long and gets me hyped for what’s to come. My best friends husband is from Denver and he really misses it, they live in Phoenix now. He said the people in both cities are nice, but he really misses the weather from CO, but with cost of living in CO it’s not in the cards to move back right now. I’ve actually be a little influenced by your vlogs, I think I’d like to get out and see Denver. My SO and I are looking to move out of CA, so we just want to see our options. Portland is on our list of places to see too!

    Denver born and raised and attended college in Boulder. Also lived in Atlanta for several years. Never learned to Ski or snowboard, didn't feel like I was missing out on anything. Can confirm there are good food places you just may have to drive to different neighborhoods to find them. Would recommend Denver over Atl.

  • @robink352
    @robink352 Před 11 měsíci

    Glad you are liking Denver! I moved here about 8 years ago and love it! The summers and falls are by far my favorite, because I love to hike. If you live on the front range you can hike in the winter as the snow usually doesn't stick and it warms up. Love your videos and your intro song. Thank you for being you!

    I am born and raised outside of Boulder, grew up in Denver and was not even outdoorsy and still miss it every day. My husband (whom I live with in AZ) even feels at home there and has a very lively and communal vibe. I recommended McGregor square in downtown for sports. It’s a whole vibe! I personally don’t think the downtown is that bad in comparison to other cities. Larimer Square is gorgeous, the stadiums are both nice, and the views are amazing in the winter and summer alike! Although the surrounding areas are definitely where the charm hides.
    You cannot beat Red Rocks.
    The fall is literally a dream. Its an insane Segway into the holidays. Winter isn’t my favorite, but the transition of seasons is substantial. I didn’t mind each change. I truly think it’s a special place and always will be! I hope to move back some day 💙❤️💛

    As a long time follower, and Colorado girl, I LOVE to hear you say all of this about your time out here! Definitely agree with all of the pros and cons and what your own observations are. Colorado is a magical state for sure. I would say definitely come back during winter so you can experience that. And if you’re able to come out during fall… that’s the best time of year for sure lol.

    Denver is a great city with lots to offer and is obviously an outdoor mecca! I moved here at 23 as a travel nurse by myself and found it to be a great experience. I moved back after i was married and had a family after living in Chicago and its been a wonderful place for a family as well. (i loved chicago too but denver winters are much better). You seem like a very active person who likes adventure and new experiences, I bet Denver would be a great fit😊 enjoy your travels!

  • @waterbug154
    @waterbug154 Před 11 měsíci

    as someone who moved here a couple years ago from indiana, i agree with a lot of this! the food scene is either really expensive for good food or hole in the wall places. as far as winter goes, i don’t ski or snowboard and winter hiking was great! the biggest shock is that true winter isn’t until like march-may. overall i love it here besides the price!

    I moved to Denver in 2010, I live by Sloan's Lake. I grew up in Seattle. I love Denver for a lot of the same reasons you mentioned, and I think we have a GREAT food scene, just stay away from the chains. In the winter I don't take the time to go ski/snowboard anymore due to insane traffic (and I have kids, so it gets $$$$$$$) but we go snowshoeing, hiking, etc. In the summer we do a lot of paddleboarding, kayaking, hiking, camping, and drink coffee on lots of patios and rooftops. SO MANY ROOFTOPS! All my friends have moved here from somewhere else, it is so easy to meet people, make friends, etc. The airport can be nuts, but it is not worse than LAX, JFK, SFO, or ATL. Love the cheaper flights, and shorter flight times to the coasts because we are closer to the "middle" of the country. No hurricane or earthquake issues here, and less/no tornadoes if you stay close enough to the foothills.
