OK so Household incomes average around $61,783 in Fort Carson. It's a a small town city with about 18,447 people. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The suburbs are where most families end up.

Moved here from Portland about 15 years ago. I genuinely enjoy living here. Still getting used to pet-friendliness but Definitely worth checking out..

I've lived in The Heights for about 13 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. When I first moved here from Pittsburgh, I was surprised by healthcare. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Growing food and restaurant scene
- The nightlife scene is surprisingly good
The downsides:
- Road conditions need improvement
- Can feel isolated
Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for remote workers. No regrets on my end..
