Englewood Real Estate Information
Just minutes from the Denver city center, the city of Englewood is home to over 32,000
residents. As part of the Denver-Aurora metropolitan area, Englewood?s population is
mixed between commuters and those residents who work within Englewood itself.
Because the business district of Denver is so close, a large percentage of residents
make the short commute daily during the week.
Residents are very lucky to have a choice in local healthcare. In part due to the University of Denver being located in Englewood, Porter Adventist Hospital and Swedish Medical Center both offer quality health services to local residents. The Cherry Creek Schools operates the public education system in Englewood and serves the area?s youth with a number of convenient campuses. Students can apply for geographical exceptions if they?d like to pursue certain languages or arts that are only available at specific schools.
Englewood and smaller sibling Cherry Hills share a lot of resources located between the
two communities. Happy Canyon Shopping Center is one of those shared luxuries.
Englewood?s residents find that the local shopping center makes life so much easier
because all of their essentials can easily be found in the mall. A number of exceptional
restaurants are also situated in the shopping center. The University Hills Plaza
Shopping Center, between the center of Englewood and the university, is another
popular gathering place, especially for the younger crowd based at the university.
