"An area surrounded by industry"

Dupont lies right next to Derby and is a busy area which has a lot of industrial looking areas around it. It does lie adjacent to Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge which is a great place to visit if you want to do a nature walk or go to watch birds. There is no camping here, it is a place to go for a day outing only. The homes located in Derby are mostly single family, and depending on which street you're on, you can find some that are cookie cutter looking or on other streets you can find a variety of homes which are all different looking.

I personally don't care for this area as there are so many industrial areas around it. It is close to a lot of shopping and fast food restaurants though. Housing prices are modest compared to many areas of Colorado, and you can buy a detached home for around $174,000. The median household income here is lower as well. Many of the residents work in construction or the service industry.

Some of the yards are nicely tended while others look as if they haven't had any attention in quite some time. You can find a variety of fencing and in some areas it just looks a bit haphazard.
Pros
  • lower housing prices
Cons
  • not aesthetically pleasing
