Living Here
There are lots of reasons to live in Arvada, which could be described as a small town, big city.
Of all the hip little neighborhoods surrounding Denver, this thriving and historic town is the hidden gem of the Centennial State. Nestled between the humming metropolis of Denver and the breathtaking and trendy city of Boulder, Arvada has come to be one of the most desirable places to live in this beautiful state.
Residents don’t have to leave town to have great outdoor or cultural experiences, though. Arvada is home to miles of hiking and biking trails and sits just off the I-70 corridor for easy access to ski and mountain towns. The city also boasts a historic and bustling downtown, with ample restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, galleries and shopping. Arvada is also home to one of the largest multi-disciplinary arts venues in the nation, attracting talent from around the world and around the corner. And when it comes to fitness and recreation, don’t forget Arvada’s Apex Center. This stunning facility is home to an indoor water park, two ice rinks and three gymnasiums, just to get you started.
Arvada appeals to young professionals, families and empty-nesters due to abundant employment opportunities in the city, a rich arts and culture scene, great schools for the kids, and the breathtaking views that come with living at the base of the great Rocky Mountains. It’s got a hip small-town vibe in an urban setting and hosts multiple community events and activities, like a local farmers market, movies in the park, seasonal festivals, and so much more.
If you're looking for a family-friendly, urban-feeling spot with lots of natural beauty and all the wholesome small town feels, Arvada may be just the place for you!
