All of what I've witnessed in the last three years is the result of rabid urbanization combined with a rip off the pot smokers effort by foreign investors something that makes most hotels there a bad joke. BTW, I'm in town now up from Florida. 

I had to start doing tax records searches to see who owns a hotel property. If I see its a foreigner no way I'm making reservations there. I started doing that after visiting different place to view a room - for a weeks stay. Even if I offer credit card, ID and/or cash deposit for a look see they don't want to. One look and you know why.

Kim you know I read your local news and post here. I've warned you guys several times how rapid urbanization can destroy the quality of life if you don't form citizens groups to keep the developers under control. We went through this in the 40s-60's in Florida when selling swampland to out of state folks was happening. Can't attract workers if there is no housing.

Finally found a great place in Arvada !
