Phoenix is even more bland and you have hotter summers there with bad air quality too. Traffic is probably worse in Phoenix.
Housing is less, but the jobs pay less. Homeless problem is probably worse in Phoenix.
Learned over 30 years ago, if you looked east of Denver proper, then it looks like Kansas. People that have never left the east coast (which was where I lived over 30 years ago, thought that Denver was like Georgetown, Colorado with all that fresh mountain air), however when you travel out of Kansas along 70 and into Colorado it is all rolling fields and treeless plains, right up to the city limits. It was weird seeing mileage signs for Denver and you would be in the middle of nowhere, even up to about 40 miles.
However, even those eastern towns along 70 in the plains, just shy of Aurora have grown tremendously and so have housing prices. However, there are many that do not realize until they actually take a brisk run, that those flat regions are still a mile above sea level, and if you are not used to it, then you will be heaving right away.
