I've lived here all my life and i've seen the neighborhood go through many changes for the better! I am glad to see that there is house renovations and bettering the sidewalks !!

A pocket that seems to be separated from civilization, even though it's in the heart of Denver. The only good thing is a wide variety of Hispanic restaurants/cantinas and shops.

Not the safest neighborhood but not bad either. One of the most affordable neighborhoods in Denver. Very close to downtown and highways. You can find everything you need nearby.
