The world’s mountains are home to a diverse range of populations such as Quechuas in the Andes, Amhara in Ethiopia and the Tibetans and Yi in China to name a few. Isolation created by rugged topography has helped in maintaining their distinct cultures, which have remained relatively intact.

The Greater Himalayan region in the north is mainly dominated by Tibetan Buddhists, with them being found from Ladakh to north-eastern India. In Nepal, both Tibetan and Hindu cultures flourish, and as a result, this Himalayan nation has a mixed cultural identity.

The breadth of natural biodiversity in the Eastern Himalayas is complemented by a rich mosaic of cultures, traditions and people. Buddhists, Hindus, Christians and animists have lived closely with nature for centuries and have created a culture of conservation.

Landforms might include physical features like mountains or oceans. If you live in the mountains, you’re likely to develop a particular culture that adapts to life at a high altitude. For example, you might wear heavier clothing and tend to be physically stronger as a result of climbing often.

Possible Disadvantages of Living in the Mountains:

• can be isolated.
• city is further away.
• can be harder to access telecommunication services.
• snow can make getting in and out difficult.
• tricky, and sometimes pricy, to build on a sloped lot.

According to this report important pressures that mountain ecosystems face include: seismic hazards; fire; climate change; land cover change and agricultural conversion; infrastructure development; and armed conflict.

According to data from HowMuch.net, in order to comfortably afford to live in any city in Colorado, you have to earn a whopping $100,200 yearly salary.

After all, the median income for the American worker in 2019 is about $47,000 a year. But a new report shows that a yearly $100,000 income goes a lot further in some cities than others. Denver was rated the 13th-worst city in which to survive for those earning $100,000.

If you’re frugal you can definitely live in Denver on 80k but know that you’re going to be spending about ~30-50% of your monthly after tax income just on an apartment. Honestly probably about the same. Biggest difference is rent.

The range to be considered middle income is highest for families composed of two adults and two young children, requiring an income between $69,000 and $208,000. By comparison, single-adult families with no young children must earn $22,000 to $68,000 to be considered middle income.

Denver’s strong economy and increase in population has resulted in higher rents. Many landlords and property owners feared this bill would have had a negative impact on the future of the state’s rental market. Many even stated they would rather sell their properties than deal with rent control.

The more people who move to the city the more housing is in demand. Classic supply and demand models combined with the fact that there is a finite amount of land and builders can’t keep up have caused real estate prices to skyrocket.
