Although many people think of Denver followed by snow, the truth is the mountains get most of the snow with occasional storms in the city itself. But even when Denver gets snowstorms, they are over soon and the snow melts within days. That is because we have over 300 days of sunshine a year and is one of the best things about our weather. Denver enjoys all 4 seasons, but none of them are terribly harsh.

Over the past decade Denver has enjoyed a renaissance, adding a world class international airport, DIA, a new Bronco football stadium, Investor Field at Mile High, baseball park, Coors Field for the Colorado Rockies, a world renown Civic center, played host to the Democratic National Convention, and home of the Stanley Cup winning Colorado Avalanche are just of few of the new additions to the city.

DENVER ECONOMY
Denver's diverse economy in a variety of industries make a home in Colorado; telecommunications, aerospace, financial services, computer software, biomedical and many other high tech sectors offer employment here. Major employers in Denver include Comcast, Level 3 Communications, Qwest Communications, Lockheed Martin, Xcel Energy and Sun Microsystems.

DENVER REAL ESTATE
The cost of living in Denver is less than most major cities in the U.S. but higher than many. Housing availability is currently very good, with single family homes beginning in the high $100,000 and going up from there. Denver accommodates a variety of lifestyles in homes from lofts, condos, high rises to single family homes.

DOWNTOWN DENVER
Also known as the Central Business District, the area between Broadway, Colfax, 20th, and Speer encompasses the real Downtown Denver. This is a place where shiny skyscrapers, tourist attractions and upscale restaurants sit alongside historic landmarks like the State Capitol, the Emily Griffith Opportunity School and the Denver Press Club. This area is also home to the Denver Performing Arts Complex, a string of charming hotels and the 16th street mall. Downtown residents enjoy historically renovated-lofts and condos as their primary dwelling style. Nearby amenities include several athletic clubs, the Denver Public Library, Civic Center Park and the Paramount Theater, all within walking distance.
