Colorado is usually known for its vibrant lifestyle and endless recreational options, so it’s a bit of a shock to see one of its own cities labeled as boring. For those of us living in Northern Colorado, there’s rarely a dull moment—between live events, restaurants, and outdoor adventures, boredom only sets in when you’re too exhausted from having fun.
Denver Among the Nation’s Most Exciting Cities
On the flip side, Denver recently landed on a list of the most exciting cities in the U.S., thanks to its thriving entertainment scene and incredible food culture.
Colorado Springs Makes the ‘Most Boring’ Cities List
But surprisingly, Colorado Springs has been named one of America’s most boring cities by Finance Buzz. That’s right—the second-largest city in Colorado made the site’s top 15 “most boring” list.
According to their assessment, Colorado Springs offers plenty of natural beauty and outdoor activities, but falls short in areas like nightlife, food variety, and proximity to major cultural hubs. In their view, it lacks the energy and entertainment variety found in more dynamic cities.
A Ranking That Raises Eyebrows
For many, this ranking feels off. Sure, Colorado Springs may not have the same buzz as Denver, but placing it below cities like Tulsa, Oklahoma? That’s a stretch. While Tulsa reportedly has more nightlife options, many would argue that Colorado Springs’ outdoor lifestyle and scenic charm offer a different—but equally appealing—type of excitement.
So what do you think—is Colorado Springs really that boring? Or did this ranking miss the mark entirely?
