Can anyone say anything about the cost of living in Boulder? I've heard that it's almost Aspen-like in terms of housing costs (which is to say, very high).
Also, if there is someone currently living in CO, what do you feel the likelihood is of this bill passing?

On the surface, it kind of seems like this would be bad for startups.
- wastedbrains 18y agoCost of living in boulder isn't bad... certainly nothing like Aspen. When I was a student here I was paying $400-500 (my share) a month with room mates in a 3 bedroom. Now I have a two bedroom right downtown (by Pearlstreet) for $1295 (I pay half). As a startup I was surprised to see that bill... I doubt it will pass, but I had never heard about it.
- menloparkbum 18y agohalf of $1295? i.e. $650? or $1295 * 2 = $2600?
- wastedbrains 18y agoSorry didn't see this, I pay $650
- icey 18y agoNot to pry, but are you renting an apartment or a house?
- wastedbrains 18y agoNo worries, in college I was renting a house. Now I am renting a two bedroom apartment.
- ced 18y agoThree years ago I was renting a room downtown from a lady, 130$ per week, which was supposedly on the cheaper side of the spectrum. I loved the place.
- andrewhyde 18y agoMost people I know rent, and pay ~$500/m per room for an apartment (within walking and biking distance to downtown office space, which is generally pretty cheap too).
