Excellent job in presenting the town of Longmont.
Thanks Annie! There really is lots to love about that town. Easy to sing it's praises
Forgot to ask- are you a Longmont resident? Or in the area?
I love Longmont I have lived there my whole life it's close to the mountains so that's way I love it
Right!! It’s really a great town that’s positioned perfectly with easy access all the amazing spots of Colorado. Thx so much for your comment and watching the video :) ❤️
Takes two hours of sitting in a parking lot to get to any real mountains! Then you better bring your own rock!
@@bobtawilger359 Love your honesty and perspective Bob! Hey, would you be interested in grabbing a cup of coffee sometime? Love to talk more with you since you been a lifelong Colorado native. Way too many TH-cam eyes here to have a meaningful conversation. Text me 970-930-1782
Co used to be a good place to live but since the 90 s ..schools and crime has gotten very bad all over..not for me any more...
I hear ya Bob- Yeah, I've lived in Arizona, California, Pennsylvania. I'm not sure we can say anywhere is free from problems these days. Life is just so darn expensive no matter where you go. Where do you live now?
Branson, mo..still think co is a beautiful place tho...be safe
@@bobfrantz534 Hey GREAT town you are in! THX again Bob for watching the video :)
..
@Marissa didn't see your reply...edited I guess
How is Cost of living in Longmont$$$
How does schools rank for education
How bad is Traffic Congestion each way in and out of town
What is expected population in one year
More then 30 restaurants but none are really spectacular.
Cost of living is very high second in the country traffic isn't too bad for a major city
THX for the questions!
Cost of Living- So longmont sits in both Boulder County and Weld County. For Boulder county, it's substantially less expensive than Boulder, Lafayette, Erie , Louisville and even Lyons. Now for Weld County, it's priced slightly higher as most cities WEST of I-25 are more expensive.
Schools- Like anywhere, schools can be tricky to find what suits your particular child's needs. Here are some of the best in Longmont: Twin Peaks Charter Academy (K-12), Silver Creek High School, Longmont Estates Elementary School (PK-5), Fall River Elementary School (PK-5)
Traffic- most traffic is situation on Main street running north to south connecting Longmont to Broomfield (south) or Loveland (north). Rush hour is busy on Main st (287). Then East to west- Ken Pratt Boulevard. Connects Boulder to Longmont and Longmont to I-25. The Boulder to Longmont side definitely has traffic but nothing that will drive you crazy.
Population- 2020 Census puts population just under 99,000. My guess is we will see over 101K this year 2023
Restaurants- YES< sadly this is where it lacks. Some of my favorites in NO particular order: Sumo Sushi, Georgia Boys BBQ, Rosalee Pizza, Caprese Trattoria, The Roost, Jefe Tacos,
Thanks for asking these GREAT questions! Happy to assist anytime! Feel free to call or text- 970-930-1782
@@michaelroscoedrabouskyrock2606 Thank you sir for your reply. I will be leaving Longmont hopefully within next 5-7 years.
I've been in Longmont since 1979, and it's not the Fabulous City it once was.
@@Miguel_2112 Wow, 1979? That's awesome. What do you think has caused the decline in your opinion? There surly has been a ton of growth thats for sure. Where will you be moving to?
@@kaib281 yeah, Boulder county is expensive compared to Weld or even Larimer county. The closer you get to the Denver metro area both cost of living AND homes increase. THX for the comment :)
The number 1 reason to visit Longmont is for the iconic legendary Longmont Potion Castle. And it’s United PARCEL Service up thaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Funny stuff!
Yes! One of the many things Longmont is know for. Those guys are funny for sure. THX for checking out my video :)
The top reasons not to: too cold; land and rent prices are too high; the drivers are crazy; people are noy very friendly. That goes for the whole state.
Hey Patricia! Thx for watching the video and the comment. Sorry to hear you have such a negative view of this state. Allow me to address some of your points- Too cold? Average winter temp from December to March is 30’s to 50’s, not that cold. Land and rent prices are high- I’ll agree here but there ARE towns/locations that are very affordable. Drivers are crazy? I’ve lived on the east coast and Cali, these drivers are nothing compared to those crazy drivers. And NOT a friendly state? Not sure at all about this. Boulder is consistently ranked as one of the top cities to live for happiness and best city to live. While Colorado in general is usually ranked in the Top 5 of any national poll you will find as being the friendliest state in the country. Life is all about what you make it. If you want to have a great experience here in Colorado, go out, engage with new friends, and make it what you want it to be. Thx again for the comment. Maybe I’ll do a Top 5 Reasons NOT to live in Colorado. Thx for allowing me to see your perspective 😊
@@michaelroscoedrabouskyrock2606 Thanks. I'm sorry for my crassness, but I lived most of my life in Wyoming, where I was from. I was born in Colorado, but it wasn't my fault. Colorado is beautiful, as is Wyoming, and now Tennessee. I am a former trucker and I would always get a load to Denver in order to deadhead to Cheyenne, so I could get home.
Thanks for the conversation.
@@patriciajrs46 no problem at all! Everyone is on their own trip and sees life differently. That’s actually a BIG part of my job. Understanding and listening to people so I can help guide them to their dreams. Glad we said hello :) And Tennessee is amazing! Bet you love your life down there?
@@michaelroscoedrabouskyrock2606 Not really, but I need to learn to. I need to remember my blood type: B poditive. Negativity helps no one.
@@patriciajrs46 you are all good!!! Love that response- negativity helps no one. Hope you are having a blessed day! It’s gorgeous here in Colorado, sun and 50s :)
Can a career minded, individual make it comfortably on a single income?! I’m from NYC and needless to say, I need a dual income to support myself..
Hey Marissa! First off Happy Friday and THANKS for checking out my video. To answer your question, YES & MAYBE. I'm a single individual working for myself. Like anywhere, hard work makes your life easier for sure. My guess is if you are from NYC, you know all about this. Colorado's cost of living and housing is considerably less than NYC and probably most of the popular east coast cities/towns. I grew up outside of Philly- Go Eagles :) Towns like Longmont, Loveland, Johnstown etc which are a bit outside of the city of Denver or Boulder is where you will find the most affordability. But that really depends on what you consider "comfortable & affordable". Send me an email and we can talk away from so many eyes and discuss your current situation. Hit me up at roscoeexp@gmail.com. Looking forward to speaking with you Marissa and thank you again for taking the time to reach out to me. It means a lot
Checking back in with you Marissa. I wanted to make sure you saw my response and that I was hopefully able to answer all your questions.
It in Boulder county! Keep it and Denver!
Oh no! Not a fan of Boulder and a Denver? What’s your favorite Colorado town? Thx for the comment!
@@michaelroscoedrabouskyrock2606 used to be Leadville but it’s has more tourists there than I care for! Kind of sad my family has lived here for over 150 years. Have really been looking at selling our track home (way overvalued) and leaving leaving the state all together.
@@bobtawilger359 Yeah, I completely hear your frustration Bob. Any long time residents of Colorado, or any state for that matter, always see what has been lost when their treasured town/community is overrun with transplants and the charm and quaintness is plowed under for Costco and Walmart. You might be onto something however with this idea of moving on. The gains you and your family could realize from cutting ties, selling it all and starting over could be priceless for you. Where would you guys head? It’s a big beautiful world out there. You’ve got to find what makes you happy and go for it!
Hey Bob, question for you. So where do you call home now? Are you still up in Leadville, Longmont or somewhere else? I'm always looking for other towns to tell my clients about when then consider moving to Colorado.
@@michaelroscoedrabouskyrock2606 no I’m in northern Colorado Milliken to be exact. Leadville turned into a transit community for the ski areas.
👍👍👍
THX @debbieannsmith8962! Happy New Year to ya, glad you liked the video
Not a senior friendly place….
Hey Jacky! How so? What have you seen as the biggest negative for seniors? My parent's moved here in 2015 for the close proximity to the 2 hospitals and plenty of doctors/specialists in the area. Then Longmont also has the VIVA shuttle transportation for seniors available. Im really sorry to hear it's not working for you. My mom loves that she's only 5 mins to her doc appointments, shopping and more. She never has to travel the highway because everything is close. Love to hear more about why you feel this way. Maybe I can do a video on it???? :) THX for the comment Jacky
What's up with the dorky hat?
Dorky hat? It's city style my friend. Love the comment though, keeping me real ;)
I too want to live in a destroyed police state
How so is Colorado considered a police state? It's in the Top 5 states for relocation, economic security, jobs & jobs growth, constantly rated in the top 3 states for happiness. Not quite sure I understand what you mean by this.
@@michaelroscoedrabouskyrock2606 crime your govenor your gun control but California on.
@@junicohen7918 Ahhh I see now. You've got to dig deeper and look at what the state is really about NOT decisive political rhetoric. Did you know it's one of the top 5 states for oil and natural gas production. It's also the second destination for people leaving Texas. It's a lot more "right" leaning than you think. Do you live here?
