Far Northwest Denver

What it’s like to live in Far Northwest Denver

Breathtaking mountain views define Far Northwest Denver, where newer developments offer more square footage than central neighborhoods without sacrificing city access. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate the proximity to Standley Lake Regional Park and Westminster Hills Off-Leash Dog Park, with trail systems connecting directly to mountain recreation. The neighborhood strikes a perfect balance for renters wanting suburban space with urban amenities just minutes away via nearby highways. Though public transportation is less comprehensive than central Denver, most properties include actual parking spaces – an increasing rarity in more densely developed areas. The trade-off for more space and mountain proximity is a slightly longer commute to downtown employment, but many residents find the extra breathing room worth the additional drive time.

Overview of Findings

Apartment List has released Denver’s results from the third annual Apartment List Renter Satisfaction Survey. This survey, which drew on responses from over 45,000 renters, provides insight on what states and cities must do to meet the needs of 111 million American renters nationwide.

"Denver renters expressed general satisfaction with the city overall," according to Apartment List. "With expensive rents in tech hubs, it comes as no surprise that cost of living is a source of dissatisfaction in Denver."

Key findings in Denver include the following:

  • Denver renters gave their city a B+ overall.
  • The highest-rated categories for Denver were social life and recreational activities, which both received A grades.
  • The area of concern to Denver renters was the affordability (D).
  • Millennial renters are very satisfied with their city, giving it an overall rating of A, while renters who are parents are less satisfied, giving it a C.
  • Denver earned similar scores to Fort Collins (A) and Colorado Springs (B+), but earned higher marks than Aurora (C).
  • Denver earned similar marks to other Tech Hubs, including San Francisco, CA (B+), Seattle, WA (B+) and Austin, TX (A-).

The top rated cities nationwide for renter satisfaction include Scottsdale, AZ, Irvine, CA, Boulder, CO and Ann Arbor, MI. The lowest rated cities include Tallahassee, FL, Stockton, CA, Dayton, OH, Detroit, MI and Newark, NJ.

Renters say:

  • "High cost of living, but everything else makes the cost worthwhile." – Nicole Z.
  • "Rapid growth means lots of diversity, which makes the city exciting and dynamic. I love the beautiful weather and outdoor activities all year long." – Breanna S.
  • "Love the access to mountains, friendly people and active lifestyle. Traffic and cost of living are getting worse though." – Sarah M.
  • "It’s sunny 300 days out of the year. There are tons of recreational opportunities and a world-class park system. Beautiful people with beautiful attitudes." – Robert R.

Living in Denver, CO

"The bright lights of Denver are shinin' like diamonds, like ten thousand jewels in the sky." (-Willie Nelson, "Denver").

Denver, the Mile-High City. It’s as if everything here is at its pinnacle. The sun is practically always shining, everyone’s happy and fit, and the economy—unlike so many other locales in the U.S.—is soaring. Denver also claims a handful of universities, three highly successful major league sports teams, a spattering of breweries (both macro and micro), and an increasingly efficient mass transit system. There are many, many reasons to move to this old trading post just east of the Rocky Mountains.

We’re not lying when we say that in Denver, health and fitness are king
