Avon and Nottingham offer a different version of Colorado:
Vail Valley access
Beaver Creek proximity
Nottingham Lake

Andy’s Take:
The right Colorado move starts with your actual lifestyle.
Park Hill may fit if you want Denver neighborhood life.
Avon or Nottingham may fit if you want Vail Valley access and are comfortable reviewing HOA, insurance, and mountain carrying costs.
DM me “PARK HILL VS AVON” and I’ll help you compare both side by side.
