Yeah I lived in dfw, ATL, nyc, (never Baltimore DC), but denver traffic is stupid nauseating Though at least it’s a simple grid layout so you can escape bad choke points, sort of
You followed 6th ave and Colfax thru the city instead of true I-70 thru the north side of Denver. Colfax is the I-70 business loop however the 5 mile gap is notable, especially for traffic
35 minutes from castle rock? Maybe at 3am. Heck, the tech center to downtown Denver is an hour! People. Google directions during any particular time to see ….
If I could post a screenshot here, I would! I just mapped it on Google maps and it says 34 minutes from downtown Castle Rock to downtown Denver. Currently, it’s Saturday afternoon. Try it!
@@livingindenverpropertybros hi. Yes, I see 38 minutes now. So I hear you, my bad. Let me try to remember to do this Monday at like 7 or 8 am. Rush hour is soooo bad. Would be great if light rail would work from there👌.
Lived here 40 years. NEVER got from Castle Rock to Denver in 35 minutes, EVER. Always allow an hour if have a meeting or job there. And this is i perfect weather. Tell the truth! Traffic in the Denver has been MISERABLE for 20 years. And you didn’t tell them about the tolls. You're probably to young to know, but originally the toll was to be payed out in 10 years. They lied to us.
@@d.k.barker9465 thanks for watching the channel! Appreciate the input as well. I just mapped downtown Castle Rock to downtown Denver on my phone and it’s showing 34 minutes. Wish I could post a screenshot here! For reference, it’s 8am on a Friday morning.
Eli! Hey man. I’m loving the home that you guys helped me purchase. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have purchased back in 2020. I wasn’t even considering buying until you and Will informed me about the market at that time. Thanks man!
It used to take me an hour to two hours sometimes to get from Denver tech center to Denver main hospital during morning traffic between 7-10 am. It used to take over an hour to get down wadsworth and colfax to my school if there was traffic in the morning but without traffic it took 10-15 minutes. I feel like anywhere can take between twenty minutes to an hour or more depending on traffic. One time it took me 3 hours just to get out of the city on the highway during a holiday weekend, so sorry I disagree, traffic can be something you have to plan ahead for.
Again, I disagree, this was regular everyday morn8ng traffic taking me over an hour to two hours to get somewhere that took twenty minutes later in the day when it wasn’t morning rush hour. You live in Elizabeth not Denver, Denver traffic is real. lol.
I live in Cap Hill downtown Denver but my parents have been in Briscoe Ranch at the edge of the Meadows for the last 8 years and I understand why it’s so popular! The hiking in the area you showed on the map has the most stunning views and is steps from their front door. And I can confirm that 9/10 times that I drive between my place and theirs it’s exactly 35 minutes. But I also know better than to drive at rush hour….
I live in south east aurora and takes me 15 min to get to my gym in downtown... literally right next to city hall and all. Dispo is 20 min also in dt, my favorite food places are about 25 min with traffic. Driving 45 min to get anywhere in cali is a pain, 45 here gets me from DIA to red rocks 🤣
When you got to East Aurora, you went straight down Colfax Ave, not I-70. Didn't hook up until you were in Golden. I drive the major arteries for work. It's not unusual for me to take two hours or more from Longmont to Colorado Springs. You also need a big chunk of cash to live on the south metro area. Infact anywhere in the metro area....
Yeah right by the old Ricky Mtn arsenal, spoke to man recently, his brother was scientific consultant at Rocky Mtn arsenal, now has Parkinson’s, doesn’t run in the family, oh well, sarin gas, agent orange, do your due diligence, of course it’s been declared perfectly safe, for wildlife only, though
Traffic choke points: I-25 from the Boulder Turnpike to Thornton Parkway. It is a nightmare for that short distance. Having I-270, I-76, I-25, the Boulder Turnpike, and 84th Avenue all intersecting within 2-1/4 miles is just stupid. 3-lanes is not enough. Ok, so there's a 4th lane but it is a toll/HOV lane. The south end of I-25 certainly can be a cluster, but at least it has many lanes to deal with the traffic.

I'm moving to Denver, I got like 800 bucks saved, that should be enough for a good apartment. How many dispensaries do I need to visit before I get my native sticker for my Subaru?
I can’t stand the Meadows… I’ve lived in Sedalia for 37 years and have watched that BS creep towards my property, and it genuinely makes me want to puke 🤮
Avoid these areas: The ENTIRE city! I moved here in 2000....yes, 24 years ago. The city is getting worse and worse by the day... House prices have been driven up to ridiculous levels! Moving here now... especially buying a home...well, you are going to get left holding the bag. 25% to 50% drop in the next few years is VERY possible. Think Vegas and Phoenix during 2008/2009. If you ABSOLUTELY need to move here: rent! The city officials are letting the city go to crap...this is just the beginning. Don't get stuck! My two cents... even if this advice helps one person: job done! ♥️🙏
It’s always funny to me when I read peoples comments complaining about the city they live in as if someone is pointing a gun to their head to stay. Your negativity is not going to stop anyone from moving to these popular spots. Lol. However, I know a lot of spots in Louisiana Mississippi, Alabama, Kentucky, & Arkansas, where real estate is real cheap, & traffic is great. Funny thing is they never make the list of best places to live. Go figure.
I 25 from Castlerock to Denver can take more than an hour period there is a ton of traffic in Colorado. Too many people too much construction. Do yourself a favor don't believe a thing he says about my husband driving from Golden to Brighton every day of the week it is an hour on his way home. Boulder is indeed popular but way way overpriced do yourself a favor and move any place else
"there's no where that's don't move there" what about the dog food zone? Or the meth stabbing area right by union station with 24/7 screaming? Or the nuclear radiation cancer zones? Or aurora?
Heh heh! Yeah my adult woke son didn’t think I was funny to say: people would move to Broomfield and say oh WOW this scenery is amazing ! So close to flatirons, feels like you can TOUCH them! Wonder why these COOL homes are ALL NEW construction? WHY did nobody live or build here before? Hmmm, I WONDER WHY? Study the Cold War dude! It’s why the Oppenheimer’s ALL lived WAY SOUTH
Since I moved here over a year ago it really seems that most people are super rich. I mean the huge house neighborhoods are everywhere. I can’t understand how so many people make that much money. I grew up in North Florida and graduated college from FAMU. I don’t understand what makes these people so successful.
You only mention driving commutes what about information for getting to the airport or downtown with light rail also the FF1 is a pretty quick commute into Boulder
I ride public transit to alrport, only minorities no speaka English on the buses, yo hablo español w Venezuelans, Colombians, Ecuadorians- lotsa Ethiopians, Zimbabweans, work at airport, bus driver from Eritrea, very multicultural city.
Personally I would only consider areas that have the RTD or other public transport connecting to it as the Denver Metro. Many people like to include Castle Rock to that but I feel its still a little too far out of the way to be considered part of the metro. Hell if Denver didn't have quite a few buses connected to Boulder I wouldn't even consider Boulder as part of the Denver metro area. This is only my opinion of course and Castle Rock is growing in size quite rapidly, it won't be long until even without public transportation that it will eventually connect to areas that I consider part of the Denver metro area via other cities or towns growing in size as well. Castle Pines for example is probably the biggest obstacle which i find a bit ironic considering that Castle Pines I've heard used to be part of Castle Rock but decided to split and do its own thing. I sort of feel unless Castle Pines chooses to grow that it would impede Castle Rock from connecting to areas like Lone Tree which I consider part of the Metro area. Hell Parker I feel is only partially part of the metro because a big portion of Parker doesn't seem to have public transportation, despite this Parker still sort of connects to Aurora and Centennial, possibly even Higlands Ranch due to the borders shown on google maps iirc.
So... is there any area around Denver that has good schools (high school specifically) but isn't just insanely expensive? We would be coming from Charlotte, and the cost of living will be tough. Is there anywhere with good schools that is affordable?
Not really, i live in the West Highlands which is a pretty pricey area and the schools are rated terribly, I don’t have kids so can’t speak too much on it
I Love Denver. But you cant stuff any more people into Denver. And water is going to be a problem. I dont know where to tell anyone to go in Denver. Its overpopulated.
The NOISE POLLUTION is awful cuz in a velvet, you can hear All the vehicles in the ENTIRE city, poor air quality too , and WORSE cuz you can SEE it - depressing
He talk a lot about South of Denver. The reality is most of a company are located in Denver and Broomfield area. Best place around North Denver is Superior, Erie, Broomfield, some part of Thornton. Place to stay away from is Federal Height, Commerce City, most part of Aurora, Northglenn, most of Denver.
Spent 32 years in the Denver metro. Got out 5 years ago & have never been happier. Denver now is a hell hole. Also lived in Ft. Collins and Loveland. Basically most of Colorado sucks now.
This gentleman's video is geared toward a certain demographic of people... Namely, folks in a certain price point for him to sell houses. He is not being accurate in his description of I-25 traffic and he's highlighting certain areas of the front range where housing is considered more affordable - for an average home buyer. (except for Boulder, of course, but you gotta have a high-end price point too...) There is a reason places like Littleton, Highland's Ranch, SE Aurora, and Parker are more affordable. It's because I-25, 475, and 70 are parking lots a good portion of the day and the commute is longer - sometime much, much longer. Also, I would not consider Littleton, Parker, or Highland's Ranch part of the metro Denver area. They are there own cities (municipalities) that are part of the front range. Just like most people, as far as I have experienced, wouldn't consider Boulder part of the "metro Denver" area. The way this gentleman frames this information is to sell houses. Now... should you NOT buy a house in one of the a fore-mentioned places? No. They are nice communities (okay Boulder can get a little precious) but just understand that this guy has a bias to sell houses. Get on some local city/community forms and ask questions. Take what this gentleman states with a grain of salt.
It is now. From Wellington to Fountain it's basically one continuous city all along I-25. I avoid FC. Have for years. It commonly takes 45 min to get from Harmony Rd n I-25 to Rocky Mountain HS. Nuts.
Boulder is just a college hippie town, not the beverly hills of denver. That would be more like either cherry creek area or HR/LONETREE. Let's try not to be like Cali, like we already are with the politics and those aholes moving out here. This place was once a good mix of blue and red, NOT anymore!!!!
I grew up in Boulder in the 1970’s. Great place for climbing and hiking, and the schools were good. It used to be a college/ hippie town. It’s now for the very wealthy. Just go online and look at the property values.
Yea Denver Metro area can be very segregated just like most cities in the USA 🇺🇸 . For example drive down Federal blvd and right about after colfax you will encounter a lot of signage in spanish for many blocks until Evans blvd. And the same examples apply to certain areas in Aurora, montbello area, commerce city etc. Where you will see alot of hispanic stores taco trucks kind of just across the border vibe. And also just recently we just got about 70 thousand new Venezuelan migrants. But don’t worry there is plenty of areas that are mostly completely white folks. There is not much Black African American areas like many other cities. I live in the montbello area that is 70% hispanic.
Question: I’m in Firestone, work in Wheat Ridge, looking to downsize. Westminster? Kids in aurora and boulder. Love the content, but always ton south, too far south
I wouldn't recommend his advice as someone who is a third gen native. This video only applies to people/couples who make at least 250K a year. Unrealistic bro 😂
🤦🏼 So unscrupulously deceptive. Traffic is 3x your claims during rush hour, crime is rampant, prices are unaffordable, the market is overpriced and limitedly available. You should be ashamed of yourselves for promoting a false image of Denver to take advantage of uninformed buyers. Viewers should check a crime rate map to understand how misrepresented the city is in this video. Then remember they don't prosecute many drug and vagrancy issues. Moving here is most popular amongst homeless drug addicts. If you're looking for fetanyl needles on your sidewalks, keep following these jokers.

Also, I would not consider Littleton, Parker, or Highland's Ranch part of the metro Denver area. They are there own cities (municipalities) that are part of the front range. Just like most people, as far as I have experienced, wouldn't consider Boulder part of the "metro Denver" area. The way this gentleman frames this information is to sell houses. Now... should you NOT buy a house in one of the a fore-mentioned places? No. They are nice communities (okay Boulder can get a little precious) but just understand that this guy has a bias to sell houses. Get on some local city/community forms and ask questions. Take what this gentleman states with a grain of salt.
Ft Collins isnt part of Denver
Give it enough time it will be connected.
It is now. From Wellington to Fountain it's basically one continuous city all along I-25. I avoid FC. Have for years. It commonly takes 45 min to get from Harmony Rd n I-25 to Rocky Mountain HS. Nuts.
Boulder is just a college hippie town, not the beverly hills of denver. That would be more like either cherry creek area or HR/LONETREE. Let's try not to be like Cali, like we already are with the politics and those aholes moving out here. This place was once a good mix of blue and red, NOT anymore!!!!
Haters gonna hate … 💙💙💙
I grew up in Boulder in the 1970’s. Great place for climbing and hiking, and the schools were good. It used to be a college/ hippie town. It’s now for the very wealthy. Just go online and look at the property values.
Yea Denver Metro area can be very segregated just like most cities in the USA 🇺🇸 . For example drive down Federal blvd and right about after colfax you will encounter a lot of signage in spanish for many blocks until Evans blvd. And the same examples apply to certain areas in Aurora, montbello area, commerce city etc. Where you will see alot of hispanic stores taco trucks kind of just across the border vibe. And also just recently we just got about 70 thousand new Venezuelan migrants. But don’t worry there is plenty of areas that are mostly completely white folks. There is not much Black African American areas like many other cities. I live in the montbello area that is 70% hispanic.
70,000 Venezuelans 😂😂😂 hyperbole much?!
Mountain, Mountain, Mountain ⛰️
Question: I’m in Firestone, work in Wheat Ridge, looking to downsize. Westminster? Kids in aurora and boulder. Love the content, but always ton south, too far south
We’re working on that as we speak! Appreciate you watching. More northern content to come 👍🏻
@@livingindenverpropertybrosThank you a ton! Downsizing is such a difficult task as well for us soon! I look forward to your videos! 🙏
Westminster and Broomfield are nice, quiet areas from my experience
@@TheRyansLion you can add Thornton to that list. A really good spot but a little pricey is Superior and Erie.
Arvada or Lakewood
Just tell people move to a wonderful east Colfax to west Colfax hood. Super classes areas. Better yet just move to the 5 point or park hill 😂😂😂😂😂
Just avoid Colorado in general! I was born and raised there it went to shit in the early 2000s but really went to shit when they legalized weed.
Where about in Colorado are you from?
@Timbodadon north metro area, but I've since moved after all the turd people moved there in 2014. Housing costs went up way too fast to keep up.
💯
Yeah alas it got californicated
Looks like steering to the rich neighborhoods be prepared to spend some money I live in Aurora and house was 375000 so be prepared.
If you are thinking about moving here? Dont
Anything east of the I-25 is Kansas.
What?
Kansas isnt foothills... its flat.
Anyone who calls I-25 “the I-25” is a recent (or very dull) transplant
Where not to move-Commerce City, Greeley, Pueblo, the ghetto side of Aurora, Capitol Hill, along side Colfax....
Castle rock has nothing to do
I heard Denver has a big issue with illegal immigration.
As of recent yes but it’s not the entire metro region.
Yup and big homeless problem
Absolutely yes Illegals are getting everything handed to them and many Denver budget cuts cause of them
Not sure, I heard it has a problem of illegal Europeans
Yep it’s terrible. Liberals ruining the city
Uhhhhh don’t relocate here period stay where you are it’s crowded enough as it is.
I wouldn't recommend his advice as someone who is a third gen native. This video only applies to people/couples who make at least 250K a year. Unrealistic bro 😂
actually - instead of relocating to denver - just dont.
state is full sorry
Transplants are ruining Colorado 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
🤦🏼 So unscrupulously deceptive. Traffic is 3x your claims during rush hour, crime is rampant, prices are unaffordable, the market is overpriced and limitedly available.
You should be ashamed of yourselves for promoting a false image of Denver to take advantage of uninformed buyers.
Viewers should check a crime rate map to understand how misrepresented the city is in this video. Then remember they don't prosecute many drug and vagrancy issues. Moving here is most popular amongst homeless drug addicts. If you're looking for fetanyl needles on your sidewalks, keep following these jokers.
Denver sucks
Where da fuck South Park at
