I moved to Colorado Springs from Hawaii. I see no difference in cost of living between both. A one bedroom in Hawaii can run $1600 and up, Colorado Springs around the same price. Colorado Springs is charging fees for ridiculous nonsense on top of rent. I have looked at over 10 so called luxury apartments here in Colorado Springs. All of these complexes are charging extra for valet trash, rebuild utility cost, large package mail boxes, parking, wifi in common areas, common area utilities, etc…These fees are mandatory fees. All it takes in one state to get away with it, and the rest will follow. It’s this new generation of morons that think they’re entitled. Remember your child asking for money to take out the trash?! Some parents paid them to take out the trash. Well they now think they should charge the rest of us to take out our trash. I am waiting for one to tell me doorknobs and toilet handles are an extra cost per month. The luxury apartments aren’t even luxury. Being a new apartment, doesn’t make it luxurious. Taking out my trash is just another way to get more money out of me, it’s not luxury. None of these apartments have ice maker refrigerators, hot tubs in units, or other real luxury amenities within the units. Colorado Springs has a lot of gimmick BS nonsense. It’s sad because I have met a lot of nice people from Colorado Springs that are shocked at what’s going on.

I’ve been in Colorado Springs since 1991. The homeless pop is the highest it’s ever been and i’ve noticed more violent crime. However if you’re further north or in the typical up scale neighborhoods, you don’t have much to worry about. The scenery is AMAZING but the elevation does affect health and even baby births. I like the springs more than Denver because there’s less traffic, less homeless, less wokeness and a slower pace. It’s much cheaper to live in springs than Denver but Colorado is starting to become one of the more expensive states to by a home. Colorado tends to follow the same trends of California. So you can just watch Cali and have an idea where things are heading. Also you better like snow at some capacity if you’re in Colorado because it’s super random. haha

It’s a city that’s been growing way too fast with the little opportunities that are present. If you’re from somewhere very remote like a rural area, it’s a nice change of pace. If you’re from anywhere that has better city infrastructure, then you see the city for what it really is. In reality, people here cannot drive, houses have gotten completely unaffordable, roads aren’t maintained, there’s perpetual construction that seems like it’s never going to be complete, crime is rampant everywhere, etc.

I think a lot of states are facing these same problems. I moved to Colorado Springs from Hawaii. Hawaii is starting to look like a condo jungle. I do see Colorado moving in the direction of Hawaii, California, New York with over priced rentals. I have been looking for a place. I am laughing at the extra fees these places think they’re entitled to…Valet trash, package mail boxes, common area utilities, fees to rebill utility cost, etc…These luxury apartments aren’t luxury. A lot overlook a parking lot. Yesterday I drive by one with the pool facilities boarded up in the Broadmor area. Then within 1 day, the rent goes up $200 on the same unit. Everyone in the complex paying a different rate for the exact same thing. Lmao

I've lived in Colorado most of my life and and yes it has gotten So expensive that my family can't afford it which is why we have decided to move east my brother tries to make comparisons about which is better but i can't do it anymore love the mountains hate the city.

Pot smokers have taken over the springs and the conservatives who used to be the majority have had enough. The city is now Boulder south so that is the reason I left can't speak for anyone else but all the people I know that is the reason.

Been here since 86. It’s a hard place to leave. You look around for a better place to live and land back on Colorado Springs. Yes, it’s grown. Yes, more crime than 20 years ago but what city isn’t seeing this. Yes, unfortunately, the home prices and rents are high. They are high because people want to live here. It’s a great town.
