What are the best neigborhoods in Denver?

Where is the good life? For families? Singles?

I was born and raised in Denver. The prime location in Denver proper would be the Washington Park area. If you have the money you can live there. Housing there is very pricey but there are also areas just west of Wash Park that are not as nice looking and appear rather seedy. Next to the Wash Park is an upper class communtiy where housing can start at half a million to $5 million. Denver is an odd duck in that good neighborhoods and bad neighborhoods are in pockets. Same with the suburbs which go from attractive to gang infested. They are often next to each other. Stay away from 5 points, high crime. Same with most of East and North side of Denver. The farther you go away from Denver proper the better the housing becomes whether it's north, south, east, or west. But you will pay for it. Especially if you want to live in view of the mountains.

Agree totally. The Lowry area is still kind of new but classically, just north across 11th ave. is certainly a place to avoid, except maybe a few of the newer condos built there a few years ago. Another example of a nice neighborhood next to a not so good one. I don't know but I'm sure it's probably like that wherever you go in the country.
