Yeah we could visit, and we will, but there is no way we'd know what areas to avoid unless it is just down right awful on first look you know?
Avoid Aurora and Broomfield at all costs. Both of those cities are NOT MMJ friendly.

Avoid Montbello. High crime.
Thornton is okay but the school system is Adams county. (more on that later)
Northglenn sucks (high utilities and poor street maintenance - again, Adams county schools - more on that later)
Brighton is okay - but it's 25 miles from Denver.

Your best bets are Arvada, Westminster, Golden for MMJ friendliness. But you don't have to live in those cities to get MMJ products.

I live in the north part of Arvada. I'm right on the edge of Westminster and Broomfield. LOVE IT! Easy access to downtown. Easy access to Boulder Turnpike HWY36, Interstate 25 and Interstate 70.

Jefferson County (Arvada, Lakewood, Westminster, Lakewood) schools are very good if you have children. Stay WEST of Sheridan Blvd if you want to live in Jefferson County.

Adams county (EAST of Sheridan Blvd) schools SUCK. They look good on paper because thats where a lot of the minorities live - so thats where the states spends all it's money on public education. But money spent does not always = expected results. Test scores indicate Jefferson county is a better school system.
