This is everywhere now :/

You really can’t go wrong in any denver neighborhood! If you would enjoy living close to a park, Washington Park or Sloans Lake neighborhood are great. If you would enjoy a bar/restaurant scene Rino, the highlands, or south Broadway/baker neighborhoods are great. The nice part of denver is that you are never more than a 10-15 min drive from the next neighborhood, so everything is accessible regardless of where you live.

Honestly, I live in University, and I love it. I have a house with a front and back yard and only pay 2250 with pet fees for two animals. Biggest suggestion is to find a place that is not run by a company but a private landlord just renting out their second home.

And if you like going out, it's not too far from Broadway which is a lively street.

What are you looking for?

I just moved to Chaffee park in a house with roommates and it’s awesome. Bit cheaper rent and lots of space but sunny side / highlands / rino are super close (5-10 min drive)

Second this. I'm just north of Sunnyside and love it. Renting out my place if you're interested.

I live in Westwood and while it is cheap, I don’t necessarily recommend it. We needed a house with a yard for our dogs and we like it for now, but definitely looking forward to getting our own place

As of late, my work related anxiety has reached new levels and it’s really starting to affect me mentally. I’m part of a great team; I’m trusted and supported, have a great track record, there are no issues, and have been no incidents. Regardless, my professional self perception and confidence is so rattled as of late, it’s almost like a paralysis at times. I realize there are much larger problems right now, but if anyone has any tips or advice to get over this, I am all ears. Thanks all!

I’m having a hard time understanding the salary /TC ranges for mid- to senior-level strategy positions in the Denver area (10-15 YOE).

Which companies would you look at for more substantial comp outside consulting?
