We want our family to move to Colorado

Scott and I have fallen in love with this beautiful state we have moved to and hope this blog will at least tempt family to come visit us. Hopefully, once they visit they will begin to think of how they can move out here with us. Our community is awesome! We have hundreds of acres of open space, parks, trails and many rec centers (nice ones) that are included in our low HOA fees. The Denver Tech Center (Tons of Jobs), Downtown Denver (short light rail ride) and the Rocky Mountains are all within 15 miles of our home. Our elevation is almost 6000 ft so we are a little higher than Denver - we can actually see downtown from our neighborhood. The Douglas County schools are highly rated. Douglas County is also rated as one of the best in the country for job growth. Our community of Highlands Ranch was recognized by Money magazine 2008 Best Places to live in America (#12). Check out this link: http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/bplive/2008/snapshots/PL0836410.html There are so many good things to say I could go on even more (but I won't). We really love it here and want to stay, however we are missing family so much. Please come see us and see how you to might fall in love. Jen
