Be very careful of what you wish for small town Colorado. My hometown of Kennebunk, ME was a nice quiet and quaint village until the mid 1980s. Tourists would come visit the beaches and small shops in neighboring Kennebunkport. Come Labor Day Weekend the tourists went home and life returned to normal. That was until the tourists decided to they liked the quaintness so much that they moved in. Rather than move in and assimilate to quiet small town Maine, the folks from NY, NJ, MA, and CT decided that their new home needed to be a bit more like the cesspool they left behind. Today, Kennebunk and Kennebunkport are not recognizable to the people who were born and raised there. Southern Maine has become a suburb of Boston complete with astronomically high real estate prices and a "holier than thou" attitude.
