Sandwiched between Denver proper and the wide-open wilderness to the West, Wheat Ridge gives folks a good mix of small-town and big-city atmosphere. Urban agriculture is quite popular in Wheat Ridge, with residents maintaining several community gardens and even raising chickens.
Any apartment on the east side of Wheat Ridge will be about as close as you can get to Mile High Field, the Pepsi Center, Coors Field, and the trendy LoDo district without actually being inside the Denver city limits. Farther west, folks have easy access to several nearby golf courses and nature preserves.
Nowhere in town is more than a few short minutes from the Interstate, making it easy to reach anywhere in the greater Denver area and beyond.
