Aurora
The City of Aurora is located just East of Denver and is in both
Adams and Arapahoe Counties. Aurora has homes for every price range and
type...from condos & town homes to single family and acreages. Aurora
Public Schools and Cherry Creek Schools both serve the Aurora area and
Cherry Creek School District has received much acclaim over the last 10
years. Travel and commuting from Aurora is easy with I-70 on the northern
end, E-470 toll way along the east side and Colfax running all the way
across the city into Denver and beyond. Both E-470 and Pena Boulevard
offer access to DIA and make it an easy trip from anywhere in the city.
Founded in 1891, the city of Aurora was originally named Fletcher by its
founder, former Chicago resident Donald Fletcher. The 1990s ushered in
economic prosperity. However, closures of the military bases, which began
with the closure of nearby Lowry Air Force Base, threatened the city's
well being. In 2000, Aurora’s population had increased to 292,393
residents. In 1995, the U.S. Congress targets Fitzsimons for
closure. That same year, officials with the City of Aurora, University of
Colorado Health Sciences Center and the University of Colorado Hospital
present the U.S. Department of Defense with a plan to reuse the
decommissioned base as a world-class medical campus. The Fitzsimons
Redevelopment Authority is formed through an intergovernmental agreement.
In 2000, Buckley Air National Guard Base re-designated as Buckley Air
Force Base. By October 2004, the 1-square-mile life sciences city at
Fitzsimons is home to the University of Colorado Hospital and Health
Sciences Center, Rocky Mountain Lions Eye Institute, the Nighthorse
Campbell Native Health Building, Research Complex I and Colorado
Bioscience Park Aurora, with more to come.
Brighton
Brighton is located approximately 20 miles Northeast of downtown
Denver on the edge of the Eastern Colorado plains. Brighton Boasting
a small town atmosphere and rich cultural and historic roots makes
Brighton an ideal place to live, work and play. Brighton's continued
growth is assured with it's now easy access to the E-470 toll road which
connects I-25 to the north and I-70 to the south. This new freeway will
bring distant Brighton even closer to Denver.
Housing opportunities range from Planned Communities to custom homes on
acreage. The terrain is rolling plains; a home on top of a hill will have
an awesome view of the front range of the Rocky mountains. It's
pretty well known that real estate in Brighton Colorado is not only
affordable, but you get more house for the money and typically with larger
lot sizes!
Broomfield
Broomfield sits just
Northwest of Denver, on the way to Boulder. Broomfield offers many
attractions...it is just minutes from the foothills, beautiful views from
many areas of the city, many parks and lakes, close proximity to the
growing tech center of Boulder and a limit on the number of new homes
being built each year. Because of this, Broomfield has seen a rise in home
prices and fewer homes are on the market. The Broomfield city
council voted unanimously to limit to 300 the number of new homes that may
be built each year in their city limits. This has had both a positive and
negative effect on residents as prices have increased, but availability of
affordable homes had decreased. Between 2001 and 2002 the county jumped 7%
giving it the status of the 7th fastest growing county in the country,
according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

Boulder
Whether at work, rest or play, Boulder offers something for everyone. It’s
on the cutting edge of technology and industry. It has been a pioneer in
the areas of natural foods and holistic healing. Boulder has earned
a well-deserved reputation for a great quality of life. From a dynamic
arts community to the many cultural events offered throughout the year, to
the educational endeavors taking place at The University of Colorado and
in our public schools, Boulder sets and maintains a high standard of
living.
Hiking, biking, running, rollerblading, skiing, snowshoeing,
snowboarding, rock climbing, canoeing, back-county trekking. Whatever your
sport or hobby, Boulder offers a season and a place to enjoy the great
outdoors.
After Boulder's population doubled in the 1960's, its citizens decided to
maintain the city's small town charm by instituting a unique growth plan
that limits growth to 2% a year and therefore, real estate prices are
higher than average for the Denver Metro area.
Centennial
Centennial is located in the southern Denver metropolitan area,
entirely within Arapahoe County. Centennial is adjacent to the cities and
towns of Aurora, Englewood, Greenwood Village, Highlands Ranch
(unincorporated Douglas County), Littleton, Lone Tree, and Parker.

city since it incorporated such a wide area, but you can find very
reasonably priced homes to high-end luxury homes within the city
boundaries.

single-family dwellings and sturdy brick bungalows, there’s a mix of old
and new amid the mature trees and manicured lawns of this neighborhood.

renovated outdoor swimming pool. The Botanic gardens, just across the
western border, offers a variety of vegetation and respite with gardening
classes, summer concerts and winter holiday events.
Commerce City
Commerce City was incorporated in 1952, bringing together the
communities of Adams Heights, Derby, DuPont, Irondale and Rose Hill in a
new "City Center," which today is the core of a growing community of more
than 50 square miles. Commerce City became a home rule city in 1970. The
"Northern Range" area of the city provides 43 square miles of growth
corridors for business and residential development amid some of Colorado's
greatest natural resources, including the Rocky Mountain National Wildlife
Refuge, Barr Lake State Park, the Prairie Gateway area, and numerous
trails, open spaces and wildlife preserves.

Technology Center and adjacent to Denver International Airport (DIA),

the Paramount Theater, all within walking distance.
Englewood
Englewood like most of the communities in Denver, owes its initial
development to the discovery of gold. Today’s Englewood is a
distinct reflection of its colorful history. There is still a focus on
transportation, education, and the arts. Developments are rising from the
ground to help boost the area’s economy, and Englewood boasts more jobs
and businesses per square mile than any other city in the Rocky Mountain
region.
Englewood offers an array of arts and entertainment amenities. Englewood’s
elected officials have placed an emphasis on art throughout the community,
welcoming public art displays and encouraging performances of music,
theater, and dance. Today, recreational amenities abound in
Englewood. The community boasts 11 parks, nine athletic fields, an
award-winning recreation center, a first-class golf course, one of the
most successful senior centers in the region, and the popular Pirates Cove
Aquatics Center.
Golden

seat of Jefferson County and is on the western edge of the metro area at
the base of the foothills. Golden is very proud of its major employer,
Adolph Coors Brewery. In fact, Coors offers tours of the brewery that are
a lot of fun. Two other major attractions located in Golden are the
Colorado School of Mines and Heritage Square which offers an alpine slide
and other outdoor attractions.
Golden is easily accessed from the Denver area via several major roadways,

Highland/Sloan’s Lake
The Highland region originated in 1858 when Denver founder William H.
Larimer, Jr., waded across the Platte River to stake out high ground on
the bluffs northwest of Denver. Bought and later sold by Reverend Walter
M. Potter, the 320-acre area bordered by West 38th Avenue, Zuni Street,
West 32nd Avenue and Federal Boulevard became home to many Scottish,
German, Italian and English immigrants in the 1890s. Some of Denver's most
architecturally diverse buildings exist here. Along with lingering
cultural diversity, you’ll find independent art galleries, book stores,
theaters and coffeehouses tucked quietly on residential corners, while
Highland Square on 32nd has become a popular neighborhood gathering place,
alive with music, shopping, food and dancing.
Two connected lakes, Cooper and Sloan, comprise Sloan Lake's 177
acres and are a focal point of the Sloan Lake neighborhood, bordered by
West 29th Avenue, West 10th Avenue, Federal Boulevard and Sheridan
Boulevard. Primarily residential with the majority of homes built in the
1930s, pockets of 1800s structures exist in nearby historic districts,
including the eclectic mix of houses on 14th Avenue and Stuart Street.
Each unique in design, the 1890 Voorhees House, the 1888 Spangler House,
the 1890 Smith House, the 1892 McNulty House and the 1892 Bliss House
reflect beautiful architectural styles of the era.

LoDo (Lower Downtown)
LoDo is the
affectionate name that Denverites call the Lower Downtown Historic
District and mixed-use neighborhood. LoDo, the city's birthplace, is the
most exciting, fun, and trendy part of the city of Denver! With over
100 restaurants, 30 art galleries, numerous loft developments, clubs and
boutiques, the neighborhood bordered by the Platte River, Speer Boulevard,
23rd Street and Lawrence Street has been transformed unlike any other in
Denver. Former early frontier town, 1920s Market Street red-light district
and 1970s warehouse center, LoDo now epitomizes ideal urban living. Wooden
buildings destroyed by fire in 1863 resulted in LoDo's characteristic
simple designs with red brick and arched windows. Once a robust
transportation hub, stagecoaches carrying gold left the Wells Fargo Depot
at 1338 15th Street and Union Station trafficked over 80 trains a day.
Now LoDo is one of the hottest locations to live in with many of the
historic buildings being converted to lofts. With Coors Field Baseball
Stadium nearby and all the restaurants/bars and Downtown Denver, it has
transformed into an area famous for its nightlife and location to almost
everything going on in Denver.

Lowry
Once a functional Air
Force base, and now truly the talk of the town, Lowry has evolved into a
family-friendly, mixed-use urban neighborhood. It is a totally new
development with medium to high-end homes being built. Lowry is the
recipient of the Governor’s Award for Smart Growth, and now a model for
city planning nationwide. It is a suburb in the urban corridor and has
been extremely successful.
With its well-tended boulevards, quiet residential streets and central
location, Lowry incorporates the best aspects of Denver's great old
neighborhoods. But the Lowry Redevelopment Authority is also looking
forward - into the needs of future generations. And this is particularly
true when it comes to the environment. Old Air Force runways have been
recycled into brand new roads; beautiful old trees have been moved rather
than cut down; 20,000 new trees have been planted.
Lowry's streets, roundabouts and trails system are designed to reduce car
trips - and pollution. Many of Lowry's homes are being built to maximize
energy efficiency, minimize pollution and conserve natural resources. And
careful land planning and xeriscaping, plus a golf course that
incorporates sustainable resource management techniques, will save one of
Colorado's most precious resources: water.
Northglenn
