Healthcare and schools in that part of the state are so bad that it doesn’t make sense for young families and older people.

As I get older, this is a constant concern. I'm like OP and just want to pull the chute and move out to somewhere in Wyoming or Idaho up in the mountains and not worry. Then I think, "Bro, you're getting older, you have a heart attack or something worse and you'll be dead by the time the ambulance gets to your place."
So I'm back to trying to find a state and city that has good access to healthcare. We're a year from being empty nesters with both kids off to college so education isn't important. But I very much have the same reasoning.
It’s tough - people from all the states around CO drive to uc health for things like cancer/etc. Risk/reward I suppose.
