Moving to Dallas, TX

My desi husband was born/raised in CO. My in-laws moved to a small town outside Denver 40+ years ago. We go there 2-3x/yearly. My in-laws have a place in Denver, a place in Pueblo and a place in Breckenridge.

1. Yes it gets cold there during the winter. But it doesn’t stop people from living/doing what they want/need to. It’s just a matter of being used to the cold. Plenty of people think Texas has "crazy weather’ and doesn’t understand how we live in the hot/humid weather most of the year. It’s a matter of perspective.

2. How much time have you spent in Colorado and in which cities? While I agree the it’s not as diverse as other states in the U.S., I disagree with the statement that “majority are super prejudice, rednecks and avengalists”. My desi in-laws know quite a few other desi families there and even have tons of white families they have met/became friends with over the last few decades. Even during my own regular visits there in the 3 places mentioned above, I personally have never experienced or felt that people were prejudiced. So I would love to hear what experiences led you to the conclusion that majority of the people are prejudiced?

3. Not everyone in Texas owns a gun and likes to hunt. I promise you, the same applies to Colorado. My husband/in-laws are not hunters and they know plenty of other families (WHITE families) that do not hunt.

Denver is a great place for first-timers. Of course there is Vail and Aspen for snow sports and gorgeous views but they’re expensive. Breckenridge is a great place to visit that has skiing, snowmobiling, dogsledding, gorgeous views etc. but much most affordable than Vail/Aspen.
