Are you reconsidering moving from a big city to a small city in New Mexico?

1/23/2020

​For me, a big city was very important when technology was first starting to create conveniences for us. In Denver, it was easy to get an uber anywhere at anytime, where when I would visit family in Santa Fe, NM I would find myself having to call for a taxi and wait and that was an awful experience and waste of time after taking Uber and Lyft for granted in Denver. 
Additionally, there's tons of other apps that simply work in a bigger city because it is a bigger market, like food delivery, grocery delivery, etc.

Now, going into 2020 many of these apps and startups have expanded to the smaller cities and although Santa Fe only has a population of 70,000 compared to Denver's 3,000,000, there is still more conveniences.

With public transportation, I actually though that they are not competitively priced in Denver. For example, when going to the airport, a family of four from my house in Denver would have to each pay $9, walk to the lightrail, and go the long way to downtown, and then transfer to take the airport train. That's $36, where an uber that picks you up at the house is about the same. Public transportation is a great option, but only if itis priced competitively in exchange for the inconvenience of it not picking you up outside.
