Hey BroncoFan,
I have lived in Boulder for almost a decade, and have lived in North Boulder for the last few years and I think it is one of the best areas of town. For accessibility, it is near Diagonal Highway, Foothills parkway, 28th st, and only 14 miles from Lyons, a fun little foothills community. All the local shops and facilities you could need (except for my favorite eatery, Illegal Petes) are only walking distance, as are many bike paths, Sale Lake, short bike to wonderland lake, Boulder Reservoir and the surrounding nature and running trails. It is quiet, comfortable and reasonably affordable. Check out Agave for really delicious Molcajete dishes
