KC or Denver? Where Would You Rather Live?

**Donger** · 01-09-2007, 08:02 PM

And why? I'd appreciate most the opinions of those who've lived in both locations.

Thanks.

I've lived in both and now live in St. Louis, anything else I can say?

Answering the question posed would be a good start.

You can tell us why Denver sucks a nut.

Well, dingle dork, my sarcastic remark was that I lived in both and now choose to live else where. Like they both suck.

Actually, though I was about to give you a better answer, so here it is;

Colorado is beautiful, and I loved living in the mountains more than living in Denver proper. I hated living in Denver, dirty. But two smaller cities, one closer to the mountains (Ft. collins) and the other in the mountains (Poudre Park) were wonderful. The mountains, the river, the clean air. I really liked it. I was younger and my friends and I didn't want to root for Denver (a good sign, right?) So we all started to root for the Raiders (sorry planet - don't worry I was a chief fan then too, my real dad lived in MO, I was here every summer. Since I just shared that information I should also say I haven't rooted for oakland since Al mistreated Marcus Allen)

KC has more depth, culture, Jazz, etc. as a city it seems more enjoyable, to me. I haven't lived in KC personally, but lived pretty close and have friends that have and do now.

St. louis is not by personal choice, it's temporary, as was Dallas.

Denver.

I live in Denver now and have spent the vast majority of my life in KC. I love KC, it's a great place in many ways with a lot of fantastic perks which people living elsewhere don't know about. That said, the weather, mountains, and larger metropolitan area here in Denver offer things KC can't match.

**Reaper16** · 01-09-2007, 09:05 PM

I really do have a sort of love affair with Kansas City. I can't fathom Denver offering me a better choice to reside in.

Halfcan · 01-09-2007, 09:15 PM

Denver would be a great place if it wasn't for all the stoopid Cheatin Donk fans.

KC. Since I'm not a kid anymore hoping for school to be canceled, I prefer less snow. Also, theare more days of warm water for swimming and boating in the KC area as opposed to the Denver area.

Oddly, I'd take Denver's climate over KC's any day.

The humidity of the KC area is pretty rough. That's why I really prefer where I am at. It gets pretty warm here and you have to dodge tornadoes but you don't have to take 3 showers a day like in Mo on a summer day.

Denver is way too cold for way too much of the year. KC is too hot and humid. I'll take Oklahoma.

I've lived in both.

IMO, there is a bigger sense of community in KC.
