Feel free to move to Denver :-) Just remember you were warned. I only lived there about 25 years. Trust me I am not talking just coworkers. People in Texas are in general more friendly. You will notice these things if you move around like I have.

I live in Colorado.

I've lived all over as well. The Denver metro is about as friendly as Austin metro in my opinion. Texas as a whole is friendly because it's the south, but that pertains to non urban areas.

I do find people in the West to be poorly mannered but not unfriendly. Frankly, growing up in the South, people in other places have bad manners in general to me.

I think it's important to know that companies have different cultures, and your experience of Austin or Denver can be heavily affected by that.

I heart Austin. Happiest place I've ever lived as a techie. Hope to return.
Why you leave?!
Wife hates Texas.
Warned about what? You didn't answer his questions or explain what you meant.
Yeah I'm not getting into that debate on an internet forum.
Where in Texas are you talking about? It's a huge state.
