Boulder Creek is the most glaring spot, but you might have trouble finding them until the homeless campers tents are forcibly removed once every 9 months. Scott Carpenter is another good spot. Park East Park is where the aforementioned kid was pricked.

I drove through Boulder and Boulder Creek.. it didn't seem like a happy place.

Denver, OTOH, seemed quite cheerful.

Did I get a proper impression of each or anecdotal anecdotes?

Anecdotal I'm afraid.
