Colorado cities snubbed from the top 10 ‘Most fun cities in America’

A recent study by WalletHub named Denver the 12th ‘most fun’ city in the United States.

“At WalletHub, we define such a place as one that packs a little bit of everything for everyone — except maybe people seeking the most extreme of thrills. In a city with enough variety, you won’t have to compromise with your friends, your family or even yourself about the next fun activity to do alone or together,” the study said.

The study of 182 U.S. cities evaluated 65 key metrics including entertainment and recreation, nightlife, and costs.

SNAPSHOT: How did Denver rank overall? (1- Best; 182-Worst)

Entertainment and recreation: 18

Nightlife and parties: 12

Costs: 118
