State selection help - I'm in Colorado

Need help deciding which state ID to get. I live in Colorado and will mainly use it locally, but I'm not sure if I should get my actual state or choose a different one.

Context:
• College student living in Colorado
• Will use primarily at local convenience stores, liquor stores, maybe bars
• Not planning anything high-risk
• Want something that won't raise suspicion

My dilemma:

Option 1: Get Colorado (my actual state)
Pros: Logical to have local ID, won't be questioned
Cons: Local bouncers/cashiers see real Colorado IDs every day - might scrutinize more closely?

Option 2: Get a different state
Pros: Less familiar = potentially less scrutiny, common for college students
Cons: Might seem odd why I have out-of-state ID

Questions for experienced users:
1. Which approach generally works better?
2. Are certain states known to work better universally?
3. Does it matter that much or am I overthinking?
4. Has anyone successfully used out-of-state ID in their home state?

I want to make the smart choice here. Any advice would be really appreciated!

The Colorado template is apparently one of their best. Great choice for that state.

Standard shipping worked perfectly fine for me. No need to rush unless you're in a hurry.

I've been using mine for 3 weeks now. Still working perfectly, no wear issues.
