howdy folks ~ I'm (30s woman) considering a move to Golden from Boulder.

When I originally toured Boulder, I was warned to avoid certain parts of the city because of the louder college parties & frats. Is the same true for Colorado School of Mines? I've heard the Mines students tend to be more mild with partying & keeping to themselves, but curious if anyone has personal experience being not-college age and living close to the Mines campus?

Cheers & TIYA

Update: WOW - lots of responses, appreciate the info ya'll <3

I don't normally drive to Denver during the week but curious for the regular commuters, especially during freezing rain/snow (later tonight's conditions). How well is US-36 maintained during freezing rain / potential ice conditions? Some apps say 34-35deg and others 30-32deg around this time in Boulder, but I'm mostly interested in highway driving conditions

I have a class in Denver tonight 6:30-8:30 that I'm considering going, but may skip if there's a good chance the highway ices over. I have an older civic (front wheel) with winter tires

update: saw the heavy snow & decided to cancel - ty everyone for feedback <3 safe travels

howdy folks,

anyone have any local in-town hikes/nature walks they recommend, aside from the well-known hikes on AllTrails?

I'm considering a move from Boulder to Golden - and admittedly, feel some concern about what appears to be more rattlesnake activity in Golden and surrounding areas given the differences in tree cover & vegetation. Does anyone feel there's truth that?

Looking for tips / thoughts on how to manage (over) concern & concern over rattlers while hiking

hi folks,

I'm considering a lease at a condo for one of these units. I am in discussions on a possible tour soon.

From what I can tell from reading reviews online, the HOA / property management used to be terrible - but I've heard rumblings that things have improved. Any current residents (or recent within the last 6 months) know if things are truly better?
