    Forgot Granada Colorado and Lamar Colorado. Check them out.

    I live in Wellington and love it.

    I am a 71 year resident of Colorful Colorado, and pray that I am granted my hope of dying here! How any list like the is doesn’t include VÀIL casts doubt on your list. VAIL is a post American acme çreation of late 1950’s Ñew England CarpetBaggers. Besides Las Vegas, there can be no better example of ’phony greed’ than Vail; it’s rival town of Aspen has à 150 year history çompared to Vail’s 60 year existence!

    Have to disagree with Rifle and Fruita being on the list. I live in Rifle and my good friends live in Fruita and they are both wonderful communities. I can think of a dozen worse towns in Colorado to live in.

  5. Bender Bender on June 17, 2022 at 4:44 pm

    hello frm fruita!
    ✌😎

  6. Charlie Laudico on June 17, 2022 at 4:44 pm

    Overpriced State! No matter where you live!

  7. milan nikolic on June 17, 2022 at 4:45 pm

    Where is Boulder on this list?

  8. Marylou Martin on June 17, 2022 at 4:45 pm

    Rifle is not a tourist town! Its a boom and bust town based mostly on oil and gas development and oil shale. There is healthy ranching industry. Hunting, especially guided big game hunts, are a big industry with basic tourism slowly coming along. The regional airport gets a fair amount of private jets for people that own massive ranches and oil and gas people.

    Extremely dangerous and crime infested chock full of dangerous criminal hostile activities in Fort Morgan.

    For my first hand experience trying to live in this “GOD forsaken piece of spit/waste land” for 3 years, I am telling you that this whole entire town of Fort Morgan should be, need to be and deserves to be on the #1 top list of all places to avoid like the wind and the plague in Colorado. And I am also telling you right now that this whole town of Fort Morgan deserves to be torn down, destroyed and demolished into extinction, never to exist again, because 100% of this whole entire town is extremely dangerous, hazardously toxic to your overall body health and crime infested 100% full of dangerous criminal hostile environment activities with criminal corruption activities all throughout the whole entire town.

    One of the #1 most dangerous main problems are 100% of the females who lives here and the perfect example of this town is the true Biblical history of Jezebel and Ahab, because 100% of all females (Jezebels) and all of these males (Ahabs)all throughout this whole entire town of “criminal safe haven” of evil doers and dangerous criminal hostile activities are 100% run by all Jezebels and even all of the Government in Fort Morgan are chock full of crime and corruption. Even the police Dept. (FMPD) in this town are so full criminal corrupt mastermind activities who commit nonstop and continuous daily illegal criminal activities by deceptive lying manipulation, misleading misinformation and false assumptions/accusations run by all evil Jezebels, even when you try to get any kind of help.

    Florence Canon City , hotel Colorado you can inter but you cannot leave

  11. Doug Davis on June 17, 2022 at 4:47 pm

    You’re a special kind of stupid aren’t you. Don’t know where you get your information but you’re wrong on many of these. Like saying Wellington is just a truck stop with houses. There’s not a truck stop within 15 miles of Wellington. Hell there’s not a good place for a trucker to fill up unless he drops his trailer somewhere to fill up at the gas station.

  12. Kenton on June 17, 2022 at 4:47 pm

    Rifle is a huge draw for hunters.

  13. Fred Hanosky on June 17, 2022 at 4:47 pm

    How can you say the weather in Delta is bad. Delta has 237 days of sunshine, 9” of rain, and 23” of snow per year. The remainder of Colorado, as a state, averages 67” of snow and the United States overall averages 28”. The December and January high temperatures average 43 degrees in Delta and February is 51 degrees. The summers are non- humid days. Not bad for being in a Rocky Mountain state. A lot better than where I live in Idaho unless a person likes colder and snowier areas.

  14. Gary Johnson on June 17, 2022 at 4:48 pm

    Fruita is actually a good. little town that is being destroyed by the moverinners. It has a great motto. "Welcome to Fruita" WTF is wrong with this guy.

  15. Ricky Mc on June 17, 2022 at 4:49 pm

    The water in Denver Colorado has hydrogen sulfide gas and you can’t find medical treatment

  16. CJC Tucson on June 17, 2022 at 4:51 pm

    You forgot to mention that Gunnison often is the coldest town in the continental United States during winter.

  17. Tammy Warren on June 17, 2022 at 4:51 pm

    It’s to honor Native Americans 🤦🏼‍♀️ you should update this, and visit the places and speak with the residents

  18. erman ercin on June 17, 2022 at 4:51 pm

    This is a horrible presentation about towns. Shame on you

  19. Susan Hall on June 17, 2022 at 4:53 pm

    Wellington? There’s great housing here. There are several good restaurants. A grocery store we appreciate and King Soopers just down the road about 12 minutes. Three vets, dentists, eye doc, auto care places, several parks (one with a doggie park), several hair salons, bakery, banks and credit unions, med clinic, great hardware store, holiday festivities, library, senior center, police station in town, two dollar stores, fitness centers, cool breweries, three coffee places, great BBQ, day cares, Low crime rate, nice people. True not much in the entertainment category, but Fort Collins is 12 minutes on either side of town and being AWAY from Fort Collins means we’re quieter, friendlier and safer. Plus, the pictures you choose were kinda crappy. Not really an unbiased account of Wellington. And this is from 2019. Many differences in 2022. Just sayin’.

  20. Margaret Gleisberg on June 17, 2022 at 4:53 pm

    Interesting views but you missed many towns…most really bad. However, you ranted about towns that many retirees from other states are moving in. I could tell you about Bad places, specially where we live!!!

  21. Greg Hawthorn on June 17, 2022 at 4:54 pm

    Western slope of Colorado is awesome.

  22. Veronica Kruckeberg on June 17, 2022 at 4:54 pm

    You named almost all the town’s in Colorado but honestly what did not think of Grand Junction near Fruits which much safer then Some parts of or maybe most Grand Junction and Clifton on the other side of Grand Junction when we were there must have had a crime rate like 150 percent higher then national average and it used to be pretty safe in the 60s and70s

  23. Guy Solis on June 17, 2022 at 4:55 pm

    People live in small towns so they don’t have to tolerate sarcastic morons like the guy speaking here..I’m not sure what would be an acceptable town for this guy, what? Dancing girls on every street corner, naked from the top girls coming to your car to deliver beer like the St. Pauli girl? Many places aren’t in existence for entertainment purposes. Living in peace may have it’s price but look at Denver, rather, look how Denver "progressed". Apartments have sprung up in every conceivable place, the rent for a 1 bedroom is over 2 grand. The roads are jam packed with people and every road is filled with potholes, illegals crowd every store and buy up everything like locusts raping the land, bums come up to your car if your stopped and the crime rate is through the roof. In addition, food has gone up, police departments are seriously under staffed, people hot rod around until late into the evening..choose where you’d rather be, Mr. Entertainment and by the way…the little woman and I are about to purchase a sweet property in the boonies of Missouri…any complaints?

  24. Angelita Yourkonis on June 17, 2022 at 4:55 pm

    Because they said that it/ was first inhabited by Native American Indians people is because they was there and then made too move away from the land because the white mans wanted the land and was expanding their territory, and wanted the land and they would do anything for it, so it’s history from there on.

  25. Susan Hall on June 17, 2022 at 4:57 pm

    Yikes, you missed truly crummy towns that should have been on this list. And, nothing personal, but there are many errors in these descriptions.

  26. Kenton on June 17, 2022 at 4:58 pm

    Many of the places you mention are next to wild, spectacular landscape, but don’t have much of a tax base and so they don’t have much money to work with.

  27. John Doe on June 17, 2022 at 4:58 pm

    That is so totally hilarious, but I know what you mean. I have lived in Fort Morgan for 4 years and from the very first day to the very last day of living of trying to live and build a life in Fort Morgan, it was nothing but literally a living hellish nightmare day by night, day by day, 24/7/365 days per year with each and every passing single second.

  28. Eliezar's Awesome Channel on June 17, 2022 at 4:59 pm

    Indians were not the first to occupy North America. Genetic evidence of Neanderthals living in the US has been found.

  29. Term limits Com on June 17, 2022 at 5:01 pm

    “Did I miss one?”…LMAO😂 this whole state stinks. It smells like exhaust in Denver it smells like sh@ everywhere else except where there is oil refineries. I25 and i70 are always shut down . If you like to ski “Yupies” it’s ok… if you are a rich coffin-dodger or geologist you will love it.

  30. Carlos Allen on June 17, 2022 at 5:03 pm

    West Pueblo..ugh

  31. Roger Smith on June 17, 2022 at 5:12 pm

    Is’nt it Fru-ee-ta? Isn’t Rifle on I 70 and the gateway to Aspen? Gunison fights with International Falls MN. for the lowest winter temps in the lower 48. Its below Crested Butte, currently a yuppie town. Gunnison is very isolated on US 50. But its a decent place to stop and eat. It has a jet port. Just south is desert. Lots of nearby attractions. A good base for exploring. Not so yuppie. Cortez is close to Durango and I have good feelings about Durango. Yes Delta is a pit and gives off dangerous vibes in my experience. Don’t stop. A lot of these towns are hispanic. English not spoken. The worst towns in CO. have to be in the area between the KS. border and Denver. Mostly abandoned. No one is singing the praises of Pueblo. Nederland is funky but otherwise a pit. Telluride used to be an historic pit but is now completely yuppified. Its a long way from anywhere. Leadville is pretty crummy and contaminated. Ouray crummy and yuppified. Silverton going that way. I don’t like Aspen but I’m not from Hollywood. Breckenridge is no where I want to be. And of course, Denver sucks.

  32. MoneyIsSilver on June 17, 2022 at 5:12 pm

    This channel’s lists are just too stupid. There are tons of shitty towns in Colorado and these aren’t them.

  33. Marylou Martin on June 17, 2022 at 5:13 pm

    Fruits is a great town. Access to outdoors, amazing mountain biking and fun little shops, cafes and a nice microbrewery. It was a small ndustrial center decades ago but evolving to tourist recreational center. Easy access to Moab, Arches NP.

  34. Katrina Woody on June 17, 2022 at 5:17 pm

    Try adding weather conditions to your worst and best state scenarios I am more interested in how cold it gets how much snow you get how hot does it get in the summer how much rain I could care less about the crime rates

  35. T L on June 17, 2022 at 5:17 pm

    Durango is the biggest arm pit in a state full of armpits. This place sucks. Whatever you do do not move here, la plata county, san juan, ouray, archuleta. Full of rude people. High crime, not to mention expensive and intolerant

  36. Taylor Kinnison on June 17, 2022 at 5:20 pm

    Wellington is great are you kidding me? The only bad part is our water

  37. stilesthissell on June 17, 2022 at 5:23 pm

    If you want to get robbed or attacked Pueblo is the place

  38. Jason Smith on June 17, 2022 at 5:24 pm

    Apparently you haven’t seen Parachute… Clifton. Monte Vista looks very depressing

  39. Phil Sallaway on June 17, 2022 at 5:24 pm

    Weathers great in Oregon 23 hrs of rain instead of 24 hrs of rain 😅

  40. Marylou Martin on June 17, 2022 at 5:24 pm

    Can’t believe you have Gunnison on this list. It is a beautiful small town, efficient local governmen, good schools, a great little university and spectacular recreational opportunities. For a small town It has pretty good amenitie. It is far away from big cities but that is part of the allure.

  41. TeeKay Couture on June 17, 2022 at 5:27 pm

    I’m from Monte Vista, it’s interesting to see the city on this list, especially at number one. Monte Vista is stuck in the center of very wealthy cities and towns (Alamosa, South Fork etc.) and so we have the lower income population here, but I wouldn’t at all think of this town as a hole, especially when we have neighbors like Center Colorado so close by. Good community support and a relatively quiet lifestyle even in the worst parts of town. It’s an interesting pick, I’m just not sure you looked into the SLV much as a whole.

  42. Cherry Popscile 33 on June 17, 2022 at 5:28 pm

    All of Denver. I live in Pueblo. I ain’t gonna pretend it’s great, but I’d rather live here until I keel over than spend a month in Denver.

  43. Nate LeFevre on June 17, 2022 at 5:28 pm

    instead of putting things like craig and cortex and rifle you should have put denver and colorado springs because plces like that are way worse than craig and cortez and rifle you

  44. Kenneth Rutt on June 17, 2022 at 5:31 pm

    Rifle probably has a lot of hotels because it’s a big Mule Deer and Elk hunting area and the reservoir; also probably that it’s one of the few stops on the western slopes decent infrastructure.

  45. Barbara Warner on June 17, 2022 at 5:32 pm

    I know some of these towns. Grew up near Monte Vista. The whole area is poverty stricken, Republican, depressed, and fairly isolated from the real world. Family farms have been eaten up by big corporations. There’s not enough water. Life is tedious.But the surrounding mountains are spectacular.

  46. brandon kibel on June 17, 2022 at 5:35 pm

    No you got that all backward Denver’s the worst town followed by Boulder followed by Aspen eagle vale Karl Springs club low who gives a s*** about the big cities the small towns are 10 times better than the big cities big cities don’t have all the liberal a******* to pull up with I’ll take small town America over big city America any day I got any day you’re a f****** a******

  47. Tim Bachicha on June 17, 2022 at 5:38 pm

    "Opinions are like armpits. Everybody got a couple, and sometimes they stink." Very applicable to this video. On top of that, you should not use pictures from other locations when showing how bad a town is. For example, the Hotel Monte Vista is in Flagstaff, AZ not Monte Vista, CO.

  48. stilesthissell on June 17, 2022 at 5:39 pm

    Pueblo has one of the highest crime rates in America

  49. kw266988 on June 17, 2022 at 5:39 pm

    Colorado has gone to crap since drug legalization

  50. Shawn Richardson on June 17, 2022 at 5:40 pm

    Lived in CO for 7 years, never seen so much racial BS in my life…the state has no right to be called a state, more like an institution for racial profiling PERIOD
