Newcomers soon discover what Metro Denver residents already know: Few regions in the nation can rival Colorado’s Front Range for excitement and breathtaking natural beauty. Dubbed the “Mile High City” for its elevation, Denver is the engine that drives Colorado’s robust economy. Over a decade of impressive employment growth has positioned Metro Denver as a leader in high-tech expertise. The area’s leadership in telecommunications is undisputed as the home of corporate giants like Qwest Communications and Lucent Technologies.

Surrounding the City of Denver, expansive counties sprawl over scenic terrain in every direction. Transportation improvements and new high-speed thoroughfares have made it possible for commuters to consider settling into lovely new subdivisions and master-planned communities. Just a short drive from Metro Denver are other rapid-growth Front Range communities like Loveland, Fort Collins, and Greeley. The latter two are university towns that offer exceptional services to a regional population.
