[QUOTE="Lil, post: 708069, member: 17309"] I have a cousin who is a registered nurse who lives near Boulder. She makes VERY good money. She rents out her guest room in order to help pay her housing costs. She's never said what it costs...but made it clear that it's incredibly expensive. When my son first went out there I spent quite a bit of time looking at the cost of renting somewhere. Rentals, even in less desirable areas of Colorado (he is not in Denver) run $100 per week for literally a bed - in fact some were "Sleep on our couch for $100/week." Shocking cost of living for someone from rural Missouri, let me tell you! As I said, mine isn't in Denver, but there is a rescue mission where he is. He got into that shelter for a few weeks after Christmas - and HATED it. He stayed, because he's smart enough not to freeze, but complained bitterly about the noise and the 'tweekers' and the coughing and people spreading germs...if one person got sick, they all got sick. I think he'd have taken almost any alternative. [/QUOTE]
