We bought a distressed short sale in Southmoor Park and have been very happy.

Parts of Southmoor park aren't great options, but if you are picky about your neighborhood you can get a great situation.

We managed to get into a Cul De Sac with absolutely no illegal immigrants.

Crime: Not an issue here. Up around 21st and east of main, only till about the railroad tracks (maybe a bit past), I would recommend "don't go". Further east, out around Alpine and further east, is a nice area.

Overall, we really like it. Eventually, once I have a few more customers, we are looking to move into eastern CO onto some acreage, but that also ties into my work (DJ Basin Oil and Gas), but we really do like the area.

If you need a recommendation for an awesome realtor, I would suggest Peter Trost with Remax in Boulder. I can get you a phone number if you need.
