Pros of Moving from Iowa to Colorado

✓ Dramatic Natural Beauty & Outdoor Access
Trade Iowa’s rolling plains for Colorado’s iconic Rocky Mountains. World-class hiking, skiing, mountain biking, and climbing become part of your regular weekend routine, not a distant vacation plan.

✓ A Thriving, High-Wage Economy
Move from Iowa’s agriculture and manufacturing-based economy to Colorado’s booming tech, aerospace, renewable energy, and outdoor recreation industries. Salaries and career growth potential are significantly higher.

✓ A Health-Conscious, Active Lifestyle
Colorado consistently ranks as one of the healthiest states. The culture prioritizes fitness, outdoor activity, and wellness, making it easier to adopt and maintain an active, vibrant lifestyle.

✓ More Sunshine & A Dry, Pleasant Climate
Exchange Iowa’s humid summers and bitterly cold, gray winters for Colorado’s famous 300+ days of sunshine and dry, mild air. The climate is more comfortable year-round, even with winter snow.

✓ Urban Vibrancy with Mountain Backdrop
Gain access to vibrant, cosmopolitan cities like Denver and Boulder, which offer diverse dining, arts, and professional sports, all within a short drive of breathtaking wilderness—a combination Iowa can’t match.

Cons of Moving from Iowa to Colorado

✗ Significantly Higher Cost of Living
Colorado is expensive. Housing costs in desirable areas are multiples of Iowa’s prices. Everyday expenses like groceries, gas, and dining out are also notably higher, straining budgets adjusted to Midwest costs.

✗ Extreme Growth & Crowding
Colorado’s popularity has led to intense traffic congestion, crowded trails and ski resorts, and competitive pressure on housing and services. The sense of open space you’re used to in Iowa is harder to find near cities.

✗High Altitude Adjustment
Cities like Denver (5,280 ft) require a physical adjustment. You may experience altitude sickness, drier skin, and need more time to acclimate to exercise. Hydration and sunscreen become daily essentials.

Booking Poseidon Moving services couldn't have been easier and the attention given couldn't have been topped. Oleg was a great communicator and we got plenty of emailed information on what to expect moving day and how to best prepare for it. On moving day, communication with the moving crew was clear and concise. The moving team was careful with our belongings and efficient moving things out and into our new place. Couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Everything about using Poseidon was great! Professional and fast service, and everything arrived in perfect condition right on time. The price and delivery window for my cross country move was by far the most ideal.

Poseidon just moved my furniture from Boston to San Francisco, and they did an amazing job. They took great care packing my furniture with padding and blankets, and everything arrived in perfect condition. They stuck to their pick-up and delivery dates, and the upfront pricing was spot on—no surprise charges. The whole experience far exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!

They really have a very nice team. I have used their services not once but twice. First time within Massachusetts and Second time Massachusetts to New Jersey. They are a thouroughly professional team at affordable price. We can rely on them and they are flexible enough with our travel plans. I opted for full packing, they patiently listened and attended to each of household items with care. I can recommend them to any. They ease your tensions and get things done one time. I am always grateful to this team
