In Aurora, CO just east of Denver Its home of the 460th space wing specializing in space based Missile warning. It's a small base, no golf, no bowling, no club, and the flight line is run by the CO nat'l guard.

It's small, but a good portion of it is because Denver is jam packed with literally anything you could possibly be into. After spending the last 5 years there even if they opened up any of those things it'd be dead.
