And whoever complained about tourists in Colorado, there aren't if you live here. Virtually no one comes to Denver and in the ski resorts, if you're living there, you won't really run into them, there's a class system in the Vail area haha.
The problem is that the most ski towns in Colorado are designed for second homes and tourists rather than locals. Other West coast mountain towns don't suffer as much from the syndrome. In my opinion Colorado has the worst mountain towns. BC, Jackson, Tahoe are all better. Utah also sucks(Park City is the only town).
Here's a map, green is where I like to live, yellow where I would consider living, everywhere else is /facepalm option( most rural areas and most of the south gets an honorary /double facepalm).
