Colorado's main city, Denver, noted as "the Mile High City", is the financial, commercial, and transportation capital of the Rocky Mountain region. The city has undergone a revitalization with the downtown area development paving the way for Denver's projected ascendance in high-technology industries as the nation's population shifts southwestward.
Denver's history includes frequent boom periods, but redirection and economic diversification became necessary during the late 1960s through the early 1980s. Set in the plains at the Eastern foot of the Rocky Mountains, Denver is noted for its quality of life and the blending of modern innovation and Western tradition. Because of its high quality lifestyle (no pun on it's mile high location) Denver is ranked the city as second of America's "Ten Best Places To Live" in 2003.
