Boston and Denver: Why People Move

Why people move from Denver to Boston

  • Boston's financial services, biotech (Kendall Square), and academic ecosystem - MIT, Harvard, Tufts, BU - creates career opportunities with no Denver equivalent.
  • Boston's proximity to Europe translates to transatlantic flights of 6-7 hours versus Denver's 9-10 hours - meaningful for buyers with international business.
  • Boston's walkable historic neighborhoods (Beacon Hill, Back Bay, South End) offer a pedestrian urban lifestyle distinct from Denver's car-dependent grid.

Why people move from Boston to Denver

  • Denver's median home price is approximately 35-45% below Boston's, where even modest condominiums in desirable neighborhoods exceed $800,000.
  • Denver averages approximately 300 sunny days annually; Boston averages 200, with cold, grey winters from November through April.
  • Colorado's income tax is 4.4% flat; Massachusetts' is 5%. Property taxes are also significantly lower in Colorado.
