Walmart, the biggest retailer, Tyson, which owns 20% of the food we eat, JB Hunt, which is the biggest transportation company in America.

After all, housing, transportation, and food are typically the biggest three expenses a person has. 

Can't promise anything for the future but more and more people are moving here every year for the famous Boulder lifestyle which has basically become its own brand, Google just opened a branch, there's a vibrant tech scene and a huge start-up culture fueled by a few big VC groups, many of the biggest health food and natural products brands are based here, the outdoor industry is huge, there's biotech, cleantech, software companies galore, the university provides a lot of recession proof high paying jobs as well as the hospital, NIST, NOAA, UCAR, NCAR, IBM, Lockheed Martin, Ball Aerospace, Sierra Nevada Corp., Qualcomm, Rally, Batelle, Covidien, Medtronic, Northrop Grumman, Whole Foods, etc. plus Denver is only a 30 minute commute. 

People don’t sue people that qualify for food stamps.

First off it seems there is some confusion on which property is being discussed.. 1 piece of land (a 30 acre parcel) I own outright, that is the one close to the train that's *allegedly* coming through lol, the site plans for that 150 unit development are already drafted in 6 stages and there are already a number of private investors (mostly people interested in sustainable development, off grid living and permaculture food forests so banks are out of the question for this development) lined up for it as it's a very unique project in and of itself using a building technique I discovered and got approval for on my own home here that ended up saving us about 60% on construction costs for the same square footage versus a conventional build, I wont get too much into that here. 

Not a deal breaker, but food for thought.

The intention for buying it was to put a food truck park.

However; the main house can be a STR, or a B&B (only difference is a food component) There's no rhyme or reason for the way Planners think! 

It's pretty easy to hire a property manager (quality will vary) but with a resort you have pesky things like food, beverage, payroll, staff, etc. 

Most tenants don't do a great job taking care of it and you will have to constantly replace it due to things like coffee/food/wine stains, tracking in dirt, pets, etc.
