Denver slipped one position from 8th this round. In contrast to Huntsville, it scored best for one-year and five-year job growth, but not as well for cost of living. In fact, cost of living in the mile-high city is about 15% higher than the national average, but IT professionals also get paid more, earning a median salary of $97,719.

The state of Colorado is one of the fastest growing in the country, and it is well-known for its scenic beauty, outdoor recreation opportunities, and legalized marijuana. Many of the tech jobs in this part of the country are related to networking and communications. Top IT employers in the area include Dish Network, Raytheon, CenturyLink, Comcast, and Charter Communications.
