Thinking of moving out this way next year and just curious what the job market is like. I’d be looking for a full time job with benefits. I have a college degree and 15+ years of work experience, primarily in healthcare and customer service. I know the job market is not great in general, just curious how difficult people are finding it to change jobs, get interviews, change career fields, etc? TIA

Curious to know what other people are paying for a full synthetic oil change in town. The last couple times I've gone it's been over $100 and maybe that's just what it is this last year but wanted to see what others were paying.

2022 Hyundai Tucson

Places I've been: Admiral, Big Brand

eta - I know that it would be cheaper to do it myself or have someone else do it for me but I'm looking to just take it somewhere, thank you.

This is that little section that used to be gravel until last year.

I was going east the other evening and saw a huge chonker right on the trail just a few hundred feet from Wilson.

Obviously turned around and took Namaqua back to where I was staying.

Yesterday I was heading east again and a kid standing on the hill above yelled out to me something about bears. I stopped and he told me that his mom had seen "a few" that morning.

Seems pretty far from the mountains for them to be spending this much time if they don't have a den in the near. The closest I've seen one before is about two miles west, which makes more sense as it's much less dense and trafficked.

That said, I just googled it while I was writing this post, and apparently CPW has announced increased bear activity due to drought conditions. I found one article about a woman in West Loveland who found a bear in her house, and a post on Facebook of someone saying they saw a bear downtown on 5th Street (!). That's crazy lol.

Long story short, be safe if you're walking or riding the trails. Bears at this time a year are not super aggressive as long as you don't startle them. Make noise as you're traveling through vegetative areas like the path I mentioned, and keep trash secured as far as downtown.

Bears are most active near dusk and dawn.

It would be unbearable if you were eaten.

Sorry if this is not allowed. I'll remove the post if it needs to be.

I'm a teacher here in Loveland and was looking to see if there would be anyone willing to help me out. My school utilizes a system where students earn points throughout the day and can then use those points to "buy" things in "stores" that teachers set up.

My teaching partner last year was really into collecting cards and would give out cards all the time and have them in our store for kids to buy. It was a big hit. They unfortunately moved on to another district, but left me with some of the cards for this school year.

If anybody on here has any extra base cards, duplicates or just any that are taking up space, that they would like to donate, myself and the students would really appreciate it.

Thank you in advance.

Where can I get a breakfast sausage roll in this town??

Hey Reddit! I have been consistently posting market updates for Fort Collins every month, So I wanted to provide Lovelanders with their market stats as well!

Single family in Loveland saw 165 new listings in July, down 11.8% from last year, while closed sales jumped to 135, up 32.4% year over year. Median sales price came in at $550,000, down 4.3% from July 2025, with average sales price at $612,032, down 5.7%. Homes are taking a bit longer to sell too, 66 days on market on average versus 57 last year, but sellers are still getting close to full value, with homes selling at 99% of list price on average. Inventory has tightened noticeably, sitting at 2.8 months of supply compared to 4.2 a year ago, which helps explain the jump in closed sales even with fewer new listings hitting the market. softening, which is why closed sales jumped despite fewer new listings. Single family homes are still selling right around list price too, 99% of asking on average.

Wow. Will this tank her reelection? Or will it be a non-issue to the GOP again?

First kid is about to start driving solo. Looking to buy my daughter her first car in the next month. Can anyone recommend an honest used car dealership in the area? Not looking to finance.

Or am I better off using FB Marketplace?

Hi everyone! I’m 14 and saving up money for a car while trying to start a small local service to help out people in loveland.

I’m looking into offering trash, recycling, and compost bin cleaning (washing, scrubbing, and sanitizing/deodorizing).

Before buying any of the equipment, I wanted to ask in here;

1. Is this a service you would actually be interested in?
2. How often would you want it done (monthly, bi-weekly, or just a one-time clean, or maybe even options to pick across all of those?)
3. What do you think would be a fair price for the options above?

Any response is appreciated!! :)
