I hate to be that guy but 2020 has been one of the best years of my life. My girlfriend and I moved out of our 600 sq/ft apt Oakland apartment for Colorado. We now have a good sized house with a large garage for wood working and my new found love of tig welding. It's honestly more walkable/bikable here than Oakland. My car is unlocked with things people could steal in it right now and I don't have anxiety about it.
I mean this is literally all stuff you could have done prior to 2020 and I guarantee you would have had a more enjoyable time doing all of this in 2019.
Since you're new to CO I hope you'll also contribute to the local issues. Today we're helping unhoused Coloradans have water to drink at Benedict Fountain Park. We do this every Sunday.
