I have been looking around to buy a place in the Highlands area
(Denver, CO) for the past few months.

I drove through Denver last month, the first time in years. The
construction boom south and west of the city is just incredible.
Mile after mile of wall to wall townhouse and condo developments,
all very new. Some not yet completed. Hung with huge banners
yelling LEASING NOW etc. Are you *really* confident it is not a
bubble on the verge of collapsing?

Even if the market were rock solid, I wouldn't want to live out
there. There's nothing out there but housing. No local work
(unless you work from home) and no place you can go except in a
car.
