Anyone in Strasburg? We are going to make an offer on a house in south Strasburg.
I entered the address at Comcast and Century Link. No internet, what are you using out there for Internet? Don't need crazy speeds, just something reliable.
Any planned expansions or zoning stuff going on in the city that I should be aware of?
No internet? Balderdash! If there's phone service and cable TV there, there has to be internet too. This is 2016, people gotta have it. Ask some of the locals what they use.
I work with four or five guys from Strasburg. I can ask them on Monday. I know they have Internet.
I'm envious...Quote:

Also, if you get this place in Strasburg, you will have ZERO excuses to not participate in IDPA out at CRC the last Saturday of every month.
Pretty much two choices for internet out here in da 'berg. TDS DSL which is the local phone company or Bijou the phone company in Byers) which is a radio wi fi with a small dish on your house. if you can get line of sight from a tower. I've had both, and am currently on the Bijou one. no issues at all to speak of even in pretty crappy weather. Only annoyance is no support outside of normal M-F business hours But they take real good care of you when you reach them. TV is SAt (DISH or Direct TV) no cable that I know of - although I have heard it said that some parts of town proper have Comcast, but I don't know of anyone who does.
There was an attempt to put in some kind of industrial park thing right off the exit south of I70 (sign is still there) but it's been a couple of years and I think it died. South of the highway is Arapahoe co and North is Adams. Lots of building and proposed building in Bennett around the King Soopers, but nothing really here. Schools good if you have kids, that's why I moved here.
And Irving, it's still a pain to drive to CRC even from out here. LOL
See you both at the March match!
Thx ripper, what speeds are you getting with Bijou? I'm not concerned about television as I work for one and can get satellite at the house.
It will be on 20+ acres in unincorporated arapahoe. Might be dangerous for me having a place I can shoot in anytime I want.
I do have two kids, oldest starting public schools this fall. That is also one of the deciding factors in Strasburg.
You can tell its on my mind as I'm still up thinking about the decision. My wife and I commute to the Denver Tech center daily so that will be a change but having the land and privacy will make it worth it.
Shooting party at Kwandos!
