Why Do You Invest in Colorado &/or Colorado Springs?

[Lauren Hogan]

BiggerPockets! I'm working on building a landing page for Colorado and the city of Colorado Springs. 

Would anyone be willing to share why you invest in the state and/or the city? What makes your state and city so wonderful for investors?

Colorado Springs has more military bases, including an incoming service headquarters, than just about anywhere else in the US, which makes it a market with an incredibly stable job base and likely growth potential despite all the current uncertainty. On top of that, it's a beautiful and desirable area to live which is still relatively affordable compared to the Denver metro. Hard to beat the combination of factors that Colorado Springs has going for it!
