I have lived here my entire life, and I am a current high school junior attending Peak to Peak. I attended elementary/middle school at Eldorado K-8 and I had a good experience there as well, for the most part. I will say that this area is a great one for families. It continues to grow by the day, and it is close to a lot of central places in Colorado (Denver, Boulder, etc). In other words, there is always something to do. It's not barren like some parts of Colorado, but it isn't overcrowded either. Similar to the rest of Boulder County, it is not the most diverse place and you can definitely feel it when you live here for a while. Overall, though, it's a calm and quintissentially American town.
I have had an amazing experience living in Superior, CO. The elementary school I went to, Superior Elementary had amazing teachers and campus, so my education there changed my life. My middle school was similar, with great qualities all around, and more incredibly influential teachers. I'm still new to high school, but it seems like a pretty solid place to get my diploma. The town is full of nice people, and a lot of kids. There is very little crime, and the small town atmosphere is very relaxed. Superior is one of the best places to live, in my opinion.
I've been living in Superior for 3 1/2 years and have loved it! Everything you need, whether it be the grocery store, starbucks, walmart, high quality restaurants, movie theaters, malls, is within walking distance. Mountain biking trails are abundant with the closest one being 10 minutes away. It is certainly not the most expensive place to live in Colorado, which is Vail, but you do have to make more than $50,000 to live comfortably here. If you have the money, it's a great place to rent or buy.
