John Fox was renting his $2-3mm home, as was Jay Cutler and I would imagine lots of sports players.  

Listed 02.10.20161,090 sq ft3/2, Northwest Denver, near Sports Authority Field (Broncos Stadium)Sold in 2008 for 70KListed at 250K, 106 showings scheduled today, 46 tomorrow (as of 2PM today), people literally lined up in the street and yard.

If the neighborhood is sporting 2500 sq. ft. homes it's going to cost $440k to build.

I am involved in many aspects of the community including chairing the Kenai Peninsula Realtor Association’s Annual Hospice and Habitat for Humanity fundraiser, member of the Kenai Chamber, supporting local sports teams, charities, organizations, and even being the ambassador for our state in the 1999 Mrs.

I can hire out things I no longer wish to do and never have to request time off to watch my kids sporting events.

Comes with an out board to putter along but the truth is I would keep it docked/moored and get a small B-Whaler to use for water sports (not sure if i can mention website of company that builds and sells them).

The key differences between the two groups of cities that you mentioned are 1)  No need for a car2)  Numerous colleges and universities.3)  Historical significance4) Well educated population5)  Pro sports

Then again, according to the butterfly effect, had I invested those funds instead of buying a car, I could be writing this today wishing I had never invested into some bad stocks or something and instead just bought a sports car - who knows.Of course, that's what is interesting about the "woulda, coulda, shouldas" of life, sometimes they may not have been the grand successes they were had we taken different approaches - hindsight is always 20/20.  

My son has the genes but never had any interest in sports. 

I don't play golf....I don't go to sporting events very often....not part of a men's drinking/bar group.
