Yeah. It is interesting that Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Miami aren't on here while Salt Lake City, Denver, and Atlanta are very visible.

Denver vs Vegas and LA isn't surprising. Cities built on industries that don't require education won't be massively educated

Yeah, interesting that Colorado has the highest density of 60+% is it all expats of the Midwest who don't want to move too far away?

Actually because it's in percentages it could be small towns run by one large industry that requires degrees.

Doesn’t hurt that a lot of people who have visited end up coming back to stay. Colorado is pretty great place to live.

I've spent most of my time in southern Colorado which is alright but central/northern is stunning...it's almost like if oregon or Washington were landlocked.
