Guide to Denver Neighborhoods

Denver is a large city with a variety of different neighborhoods. The city lies in the South Platte River Valley, on the western edge of the High Plains. The Front Range of the Rockies rises just to the west of the city. Denver is by far the largest city in Colorado, with approximately 85% of the state's population living in the metro region. It is also the state capital.

The city is in most cases divided into 78 different neighborhoods for administrative purposes, but locals also have their own names for neighborhoods within some of these areas that have their own distinctive characters. For example, the LoDo or Lower Downtown area is a well-known spot for dining out, but it isn't one of the official neighborhoods of Denver.

As a general rule, the oldest and most densely packed neighborhoods are nearer to the center of Denver. The homes become larger and more modern as you move out of the city.

Moving to Denver

If you're planning on moving to Denver then choosing the neighborhoods where you would like to live can be a good start. Narrowing down the options can make searching for your new home a lot easier. You can like to start by listing the features that you would like your new neighborhood to have. Divide your list into features that your new area must have and those that you would like, but can live without. You can then look for a neighborhood that meets as many of your priorities as possible. Narrow down your options to the areas that have all your essential features. Then identify the areas that have more of the non-essential features that you want.

Best Neighborhoods in Denver

Everyone has their own list of essential and desirable features when buying a home, but there are some neighborhoods in Denver that are particularly popular. If you're not sure where to begin your property search then you can want to look at some of these areas.

• Washington Park and Washington Park West: two adjoining neighborhoods that are in many cases considered among the best places to live in Denver. Wash Park has some of the most expensive homes in the city as well as Denver's best park. If you want plenty of outdoor space or green views in the city, the Washington Park can be the best choice for you.
• Country Club: one of the more expensive neighborhoods in Denver, with prices still rising. Country Club is largely residential, with some beautiful Mediterranean style houses and classic Denver Squares. The tree-lined streets and local golf club make this a green and attractive place to live in the city.
• Sloans Lake: the large lake that gives this neighborhood its name is one of the best reasons to consider living here. Properties with lake views are in great demand and tend to be the most expensive, but the rest of the area also has some beautiful family homes with a more suburban feel than many other parts of Denver.
• Park Hill: a largely residential area with some great properties, particularly to the south. As you get to know the area you will find lots of little restaurants and bars hidden around the neighborhood, which are mainly known by locals.
• Platt Park:
• Capitol Hill: this neighborhood is very popular with younger buyers who want to enjoy the superb local bars and restaurants. Many people from surrounding areas come into Capitol Hill when they want an evening out. It's also a great place to live, with a vibrant and diverse community. If you're considering buying in Capitol Hill then you can also want to look in the neighboring Uptown or North Capitol Hill area, which has a very similar feel to it.
• Cherry Creek: as one of the most affluent parts of the Denver metro area, property prices in Cherry Creek tend to be high. You can find many luxurious condos and houses in this area and it is also home to one of the city's best shopping areas for luxury brands, Cherry Creek North. Properties in Cherry Creek are in great demand as it is considered one of the most desirable addresses in the Denver metro area.
• LoDo: the Lower Downtown neighborhood is one of the best choices if you want to buy a property near downtown Denver. LoDo overlooks the downtown area but has a better range of homes as well as many excellent bars and venues of its own. The area is more popular with younger buyers who are looking for a lively nightlife and easy access to downtown.
• Five Points: one of the most diverse neighborhoods in Denver, Five Points is a great place to eat out or listen to live music. The Five Points Jazz Fest is a favorite for many locals. Property prices are rising in this area and it is starting to attract different kinds of buyers, but it remains most popular with younger people.
• Lincoln Park or the Santa Fe Art District: one of the best locations in Denver if you drive a lot, Lincoln Park has excellent road connections via the I25 and Highway 6.
