"World renown for all the wrong reasons"

We have friends who live in Columbine and we've always enjoyed going to their home for dinner. The area has some nice homes, good amenities, and is really close to the mountains which is always a plus. However, since the Columbine HS tragedy some years ago, this area became known for all the wrong reasons. It's a nice, relatively quiet area with tons to do and pretty great highway access. There's no lack of shopping or dining nearby, so residents never have far to travel.

The area is primarily white, upper middle class. The household income is higher than the state average but so is the cost of homes. When it comes to industries, there is no one overwhelming winner, there are quite a few represented.

There are some scenic spots in Columbine and also some really good parks. Not far away is a biking trail that goes along C-470 and you can get in a really great workout on it from all of the hills along the highway. Other than being known for the tragedy that occurred here, I think this is a nice area with a lot to offer its residents.
Pros
  • lots to do
  • nice homes
  • close to the mountains
