Your Boulder County Resource Guide

Considering moving to Boulder Colorado?  Why wouldn’t you be?  With the mountains at your back door, wildlife, and outdoor lifestyle, it’s a great place to move.  Enjoy restaurants galore, abundant shopping, and many parks.  We have miles and miles of open space and Lyons and Estes Park are just a short drive away.  Don’t forget the ski slopes.  There are a couple you can drive or take the bus to in just one hour.  Yes, Boulder is a wonderful place to live with exciting opportunities. 

Many people find that their lifestyles completely change after relocating to this magical mountain city.

If you are excited to move to Boulder Colorado but are daunted by the moving process and getting familiar with a new area, well….fear no more!  This is your Boulder County Resource List and it provides all the essential information you need to move to our popular city.  As a Realtor, I get many requests for resources about our county for people wanting to relocate here.   As a Colorado native and a Boulder resident for 15 years, I take pride in this city and love to share what I know.  So, here goes…

When I decided to move to Boulder from Denver it was based on an article stating that Boulder Colorado was one of the safest places in the country to live and to raise children.  Being a mother and raising my children here, I have found that to be nothing but true.  Click here for crime rates.

Another reason for my move to Boulder was to attend the University of Colorado.  Then, it was one of the first colleges to offer an Environmental Studies program – of course!!!  It really is a great campus and the population of Boulder is abundant with University Students.

You may be moving here to live among the open space, hiking/biking trails, and climbing opportunities.  From hard-core mountain biking to cruising on the gorgeous Boulder Creek Path, this town is a cyclist’s dream. Forget driving; it’s faster to get around Boulder on a bike. Trail information is available at Boulder Open Space website located above (includes an interactive map, or 303-441-3440); Boulder County Parks and Open Space (303-678-6200); and City of Boulder Transportation Department (303-441-3200). Boulder is famous for it’s outdoor playground and there is something for everyone.

One of the first resources you need to move is a reliable team of movers.  I have several that I like.  The first is The Moving Connection, owned by a friendly local.  Taylor Moving and United Moving Services are two more companies in town that also work across country.

The next and most important resource you need is a real estate agent to help you list the home you have now and to help you buy your new home here in Boulder.  Call the Troia Team, of course, for all of your real estate needs.

I always get requests for information on licensing, taxes, and utilities.  These are necessities to any move.  Dog licensing, car registration, and how to get your drivers license will get you started. 

Last, but not least for Your Boulder County Resource List includes Boulder Parks & Recreation, and Boulder Public Schools.  While this list is just a preview of all the great resources in Boulder County, you can call today for more information about real estate, entertainment, and medical facilities.  I look forward to assisting you in your move.

   Good day! This is kind of off topic but I need some advice from an established blog. Is it very hard to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast. I’m thinking about making my own but I’m not sure where to start. Do you have any tips or suggestions? Thank you
