Hi All,
Next week, I'll be flying out to Colorado for a job interview with Ball Aerospace in Broomfield. If this results in a good offer, I'd probably go for it and then have to move everything from my present house out to the Broomfield area.
Besides the necessity of having to re-adapt my old bones to snow country -
Might anyone be able to clue me in on what neighborhoods I should look at?
I presently rent a small 2 bedroom house plus detached garage, and everything is pretty much filled up with possessions and stuff - all the standard furniture, some appliances, plus bike plus lots of toolboxes, a couple of guitars (note avatar) and a big amp, and so on.
I'd like to find another 2BR house with a garage, reasonably secure & safe;
It's important to me to be thrifty, so I'd be willing look at, shall we say, somewhat "depressed" areas, as long as they're fairly safe (crime rate) for a single guy who's neither large nor buffed; house & garage actually have to be secure-able for obvious reasons;
I make noise, so an apartment or townhome is out of the question (and townhomes have other issues that I will not deal with);
It would be nice to have easy access to the local bike shops (Denver & Foothills, I believe).
I'm totally ignorant of the general public utilities there, but I will say that I'm not into the idea of propane or septic tanks, I like "real" city utilities.
Any ideas or guidance much appreciated!
Thanks,
Paul
