Denver is the state capital and the center of the metro area, and its neighborhoods each have a distinct personality. LoDo and Union Station, RiNo, Capitol Hill, the Highlands, Washington Park, Cherry Creek and Baker are just some of the areas buyers explore.
The housing stock is equally varied, from historic Denver Squares and brick bungalows to new condos and townhomes. Light rail, bike lanes, parks and a dense mix of restaurants and shops make many neighborhoods convenient to live in without a car, and the A Line train connects downtown to the airport.
Good to know
- Property taxes, HOA fees and condo rules differ widely from one neighborhood to another.
- Older homes may need updates to plumbing, electrical or sewer lines, which a thorough inspection helps identify.
