Provide a brief description of Denver:

We live in Denver: four pro sports teams, less than an hour from the slopes, 300+ sunny days a year, and we are close to Boulder. January weather could be 60 degrees one day or snowing the next. We’re not too close to any other ACE communities, but in the words of John Staud, “So is Hawaii but who complains about paradise!”

What do you like most about Denver?

There is always something to do, whether it be hitting up the nightlife downtown, catching a concert or a game. However, living on an ACE budget doesn’t always lend itself to spending money on entertainment so it’s important to seek out activities that do not cost anything. Denver is full of free entertainment ranging from hiking to skiing, or just walking around downtown. Denver is also a fairly young city, and home to a fabulous Alumni Club that offers fun game watches!
