The short answer

Denver has eight neighborhoods with a Walk Score above 80 (Downtown and Capitol Hill lead at 94), and the suburbs have exactly one walkable place each: the old downtown. Littleton, Arvada, Golden, Louisville, Fort Collins, Boulder, Colorado Springs, Castle Rock, Loveland and Longmont all built a Main Street before the car, and the four to six blocks around it are the walkable homes in that city. Everything else is a drive. Denver has 317 listings that name walkability this week, Boulder 32. Below: every walkable neighborhood with the score, what is on foot, and the search.

What walkable costs, and what it saves

  • The premium. A house in Wash Park or Highland sells for more per square foot than the same house in a drive-everywhere subdivision, and the gap widens in slow markets because walkable inventory is fixed.
  • The savings. Dropping one car saves the payment, insurance, parking and gas. Households near the D, E and W lines and in the 90+ neighborhoods run on one car.
  • Parking. Many 1900s houses have no garage and many condos sell one space. A second car in Capitol Hill is a monthly problem.
  • Noise and Saturday night. Walkable means bars. Two blocks from the strip is the price of sleep.
  • Older houses. The walkable neighborhoods were built from 1890 to 1940. Sewer lines, knob-and-tube wiring, and lead paint show up in inspections; budget for them.
  • The suburb downtown premium. Downtown Littleton, Olde Town Arvada and Golden carry a premium for a four-block radius, then prices drop to the rest of the city.

The Colorado
Walkable-Neighborhood Guide

Every walkable neighborhood on the Front Range with the score, the parking, the rail stop and what to inspect in a 1900s house

The simple answer

Denver has eight neighborhoods with a Walk Score above 80; each suburb has one walkable place, its old downtown. Walkable homes cost more per square foot and hold it. The offset is one fewer car; the catch is a 1900s house to inspect.

Questions people ask

What is the most walkable neighborhood in Denver?

Downtown and Capitol Hill, both with a Walk Score of 94, then Five Points and the Golden Triangle at 90, Highland and Cherry Creek at 85, and Washington Park and Platt Park around 80.

Which Denver suburbs are walkable?

Only their old downtowns: Downtown Littleton, Olde Town Arvada, Downtown Golden, Old Town Louisville and Downtown Castle Rock. Each is a four-to-six-block radius around Main Street, and three of them have a light rail stop.

Is Fort Collins walkable?

Old Town Fort Collins is, with a Walk Score in the mid 80s along College Avenue and the Poudre trail. The rest of the city is a bike ride, which Fort Collins does better than any Front Range city.

Can I live in Denver without a car?

In the 90+ neighborhoods and along the D, E and W lines, yes. Most households there keep one car for the mountains and skip the second.

Do walkable homes in Colorado cost more?

Yes, per square foot, and the premium holds in slow markets because the inventory of walkable blocks does not grow. The offset is one fewer car.

What should I inspect in a 1900s Denver house?

The sewer line (scope it), the electrical (knob-and-tube and 60-amp panels), lead paint, the foundation, and the roof structure. Budget for at least one of them.
