I moved to Colorado Springs for the mountains, but also because the almanac said they have 330 days of sunshine and It truly does have 330 days of sunshine. I lived there for 19 years and it was awesome. It felt more like home to me than where I grew up. The only reason I had to leave was because of family, otherwise I would still be there. I have not seen everything Mark talks about, but I have seen most of them and I can attest to the truth of most of what Mark says. Colorado Springs is my favorite place ever. I especially love the weather, the dry air and very few bugs, (meaning almost no mosquitoes). The hiking is unbelievable. Running the trails in the Garden of the Gods was always a blast. I will always be homesick for Colorado Springs.
Hi Mark; I’ve been thinking to move to Colorado very seriously; but have some issues that will need to take place before I can move with my family. I’ll be glad to talk to you and have personal advice before taking those important big steps. Thanks for your time and dedication; you have GREAT videos! Blessings to you and yours ☺️
Thank you so much for this video!!! We're moving to Colorado from Washington in a month or two. I am so nervous. But this video is making me more excited!! 😁
Christian Medina Realtor it’s about 3 hours from us in an awesome little mountain town called Estes Park. Definitely worth a visit if you haven’t ever been!
Christian Medina Realtor Definitely check it out! I was there this time last year and I stayed in Highlands Ranch. Was a few hours from Estes Park, but my family and I LOVE the movie Dumb and Dumber. That movie was shot at that hotel too. We went to the lobby bar to have a drink. I’ll tell you to eat before you go though bc the food there is expensive! Also saw that chapel at the Air Force academy when we went there as well. I got some AWESOME shots when I was there. I love Colorado!
Hello my name is Scott I'm currently located in Pismo Beach California and I have been looking into moving to Colorado for months now and Colorado Springs is definitely on my for sure list of cities to go to and by the way I just have to say your content is great is a lot of videos out there but they're back and forth you have to watch a thousand of them to get all the answers and you seem to some of that pretty good and by that I mean excellent keep up the great work I definitely subscribed and I'll be liking every video I see from now on
I didn't realize they were building another Children's Hospital- that's great! This was an awesome video! Nice shout out to Mt. Princeton Hot Springs - best close by getaway!
@@MyFrontRangeLiving from La Joya, TX. My grandma and uncle with his wife and kids live over in Colorado Springs and they really wanted us to go over there 😁
Serious question: how is the elevation there for people who have asthma issues, and just overall health? I hear the high evaluation is hard for people to breathe normally if they suffer from asthma or any respiratory issues. And over prolonged time your blood vessels to your heart struggle more from the elevation living there.
So we moved from SoCal to NM last year since my family had migrated there over the past several yrs- My husband's family lives in CO Springs and we are praying about moving there. We are not feeling the work environment here. Currently my husband is applying for jobs in CO- however, my sister mentioned her friends said "everyone smokes weed and drives under the influence since CO passed the weed law." I kinda think she was over exaggerating- what is your opinion on that. I was looking at Manitou. It reminds me of Big Bear where my husband is from and we lived together for a few years. We want to raise our little ones in CO- Thanks so much for this video!
Hi! Thanks so much for watching! Colorado Springs is a wonderful place to raise children! We have several great school districts. Yes, weed is legal here, however, it certainly isn't the main reason people love it here. The beauty of this place is what brings people here. Manitou is a little more expensive than Colorado Springs, but is a fun little town. I'd be happy to help in any way possible. Please call or email me if you'd like to talk more about this awesome city. 719-685-6964 or mark@myfrontrangeliving.com Side note, my co-worker Amber is from SoCal!
I actually need a job opportunity that’ll help me get to the job and work for a weekly pay. I know I would be a great employee. And I want to let my daughter grow up here as well. Either here or Arizona
Dang buddy! I just moved here and have been trying to keep this place our secret! We're in quarantine! The weather can change through all four seasons in one day. No one appears to be over 24 years of age. All millennial. Bad roads. No good restaurants unless you like "Noodles co. or Canes chicken". Good luck in getting a good job if you are not military or married to military. And God knows what they do with people 40 and over here! And get use to altitude sickness and being constantly out of breath walking anywhere. No proper department stores. Saks Fifth Avenue would close on a week if we even had one here or a Bloomingdale's...closest one is in Las Vegas! And your car will be fine if you own a garage so it doesn't get pock marked from the baseball size hail that dents the cars here. Check out Miami. ..you will love that tropical paradise with the island treasures of the Caribbean a short cruise or flight away!🏝⛵🛳⛴🚢⛱🌊🌝🌞
Not sure about all of this. My husband has been trying to get an executive job in finance for over a year. If you have military or medical experience...you can get a job. Lots of retired military here. I doubt you will be in flip flops year round. The weather changes a lot. We’re thinking thinking about mover closer to Denver for better job opportunities.
I was there last August 15 to August 18 with America by Rail, saw Rocky Mountain National Park, Garden of the Gods and Georgetown Loop Railroad , Colorado was awesome to me such a beautiful state.

Sorry you had to leave! COS is such an amazing place!
No to the flip flops. Yes, I loved living there. The storms rolling off the mountains. The open spaces. The low humidity.
Planning on moving there after college in two years. My sister lives in Denver. I love Colorado in general!
Hi Mark; I’ve been thinking to move to Colorado very seriously; but have some issues that will need to take place before I can move with my family.

Great video thank you! Just enlisted in the Air Force and hoping to be stationed here 🤞
Fingers crossed you get your wish!
Beautiful scenery pics! Makes me want to visit!
It is absolutely gorgeous here! Come visit any time!
My wife and I went to Denver about 2 years ago. I didn't want too leave.
You absolutely can NOT wear flip flops year round. But The Springs is amazing, true
A.J.'s Adventures in Asia I wear them year round! There may be a few days here and there when I don’t, but for the most part I wear them regularly!
Thinking about moving in a few years and becoming a police officer in Colorado Springs from Ohio!! Can’t wait
Love Colorado Springs!
Coming from Missouri, no humidity is freakin awesome
I loathe Missouri., I have been looking at CO Springs for a while., just worried about job opportunities.
I’m from bum ass Waynesville MO 😥
Great features! Look forward to a video about the new downtown! 😀
I like that it’s centrally located to other states and so much to do. Thank you for the video.
How far is the hotel from the movie “The Shinning”?

Hello, I have a question. I plan on moving early 2021 to Colorado 🤞🏾🤞🏾
How much would you recommend saving before moving?
I’m moving there in September does anyone know any good high schools? I’m looking for a school in district 12
Cheyenne Mountain High School is the main high school in D12. The Vanguard School is a charter school and is K-12.
My Front Range Living what about in district 20 my sister is looking at air academy high school
McRib District 20 is a highly rated district, but I don’t have any personal experience with D20.
I'm moving to Colorado Springs 😀🖼

I am trying to move to Colorado springs.. But I'm having a hard time finding a place that's not going to brake me.
@@vanessaorozco7436 have you looked in to Fountain? It's just south of Colorado Springs but is a little more affordable.
I loved it there. Of course I don’t care much for tourist traps.

Colorado springs the best
You lost your hair! 😱😂
Flip flops year round and sun??? Yes please! You do have amazing views!
Yes, shaved it all off for St. Baldrick's a couple weeks ago!! Thanks for watching!
Really, come on I been thinking it always cold and snow.
He is not mentioning how cold it does get. The weather also changes quite a bit.
Does a heavy military presence mean that Colorado Springs is a firearm friendly community?
I've always wanted to see the Garden of the Gods!
It is so beautiful! Been here many years and never get tired of a hike/walk/drive through Garden of the Gods!
It’s really great! Lots of people rock climb there too, it’s fun to watch them as you walk around and explore
I was there last August 15 to August 18 with America by Rail, saw Rocky Mountain National Park, Garden of the Gods and Georgetown Loop Railroad , Colorado was awesome to me such a beautiful state.
Have you ever lived anywhere else?

I love riding my Motorcycle????!!!!!
I'm trying to leave Colorado Springs! lmao 🤣😭
Ahah I'm trying to go back 😂
Whyyyy
Yeah what about (IT) jobs????????????????????????
Flip flops year round, really?
Yes! There are certainly days in the winter where flip flops are not ideal, but then the next day will be sunny and perfect for flip flops!
My wife wears flip flops all year round here......not because it’s practical, but because she likes to annoy me
Lies
Doesn't convince me 🤔
I need a video made from a woman’s perspective.
Great video
