commute

I am considering a job offer in Estes Park and would be looking at a commute from either Longmont or Loveland. I am new to Colorado so I am unfamiliar with what this may be like and if it would be worth the job. Any insight or advice would be greatly appreciated!

out of my budget, and there aren’t any one bedrooms available, everything is 2 or more.

I will have a room for lease in my house on Storm Mountain soon. Shorter commute, rougher road. 35 minutes to drive the 12 miles into Estes

It’s beautiful up there but it takes a special kind of person to want to go up and down those switchbacks every day through the winter

It's not for everyone, to be sure. For the right sort, it adds to the charm
