      well, there is transit in denver. rtd has a typical (for the u.s.) bus service, along with 10 rail lines (mix of heavy and light rail), serving over 60m passenger rides a year. however, many parts of the city have little or no service at all.

        Yeah, nearest light rail station is 2 miles away from me and I live in the city. I can ride my bike around town for the most part, beating people driving if we start at the same start and going to the same destination. I do ride mostly in late spring -early fall. Snow and ice make it hard for my gravel bike to get around. But getting from the south side of town to the north side kind of is a bear riding. Lot of bus stops in my area though……

      I have a remote job and considered moving there. I ultimately decided not to because of the cost of living and the low walkability of the city.

        You must live in a very walkable city then. I find Denver to be excellent but I spent a lot of time in Ohio before Denver and those cities suck for walkablity and bike ability
