Are any areas particularly popular with United pilots? It's been a while since we were in Denver for fun, but we loved the Golden and Boulder area. Looking at the listing prices though, we might need to wait till I'm bringing in wide body money to afford a place there! I plan on driving around while I'm in training to find some places, but any leads would be appreciated!
If you like Golden and Boulder you won't find anything like them. But you can make it to DEN on a 3 hour call out from anywhere on the front range between Cheyenne/Laramie and Pueblo.
The question is, do you want to work in the TK or not? If you do, closer to that is better. There are some nice affordable townhomes going up along the I70 and I25 corridors in the Denver area that you can afford on narrow-body pay.
