| Positive Attributes of Greeley | |
| Thought I would add a few positive things about Greeley - I moved here about 8 years ago from Fort Collins, CO, and had previously lived in CA. 1) Housing is not expensive - a new 3 BD, 2BA house can less than $230,000 (of course you can get a more expensive one if you want to!!); 2) Great biking & hiking trails - the Poudre River Trail runs through town; 3) Relatively good weather for CO - not alot of snow - snow rarely sits on the ground for more than a day or two; 4) Lots of sunny days (although some of them are chilly sunny days), & summer days are usually in the 80s and not humid: 5) Inexpensive, very nice city sponsored recreation facilities. And a senior can have full access to facilites for between $0 and $25 a month (depending on if they have certain Medicare Advantage plans that include the Silver Sneakers programs); 6) In general things here are less expensive than in many other places, although we have most of the usual big box shopping available; 7) It is a "university town" - home to University of Northern Colorado. Also has Aims Community Collage which can be great if you want to take classes in assorted fun things for seniors: 8) Close to a couple of other No CO towns - Loveland & Fort Collins - if you want more variety; 9)a diverse population, which is great if you like diversity; 10)Close to the Rocky Mountains - it is an hour from Rocky Mountain National Park. - Great for experiencing nature, hiking, and camping. :) | |
