Englewood, CO

Englewood is a city located in the Denver metropolitan area. The population of Englewood was estimated to be around 103,000 as of the 2010 census. Englewood is known for its large number of single-family homes and its proximity to downtown Denver. The city's real estate market has seen strong growth in recent years, with median home prices reaching $269,000 as of September 2015.

The history of Englewood can be traced back to 1892 when the town was founded by George W. Engel and named after a town in Germany. At that time, Englewood consisted of just a few buildings and was primarily used for farming and ranching. In the early 1900s, Englewood began to grow rapidly as it became an industrial center due to its close proximity to downtown Denver. By 1940, the population had reached 10,000 and by 1960, it had grown to 30,000 residents.

In recent years, Englewood has seen significant growth due to its strong real estate market. As of September 2015, median home prices in the city had reached $269,000 – an increase of more than 60% from 2010 levels. This rapid growth has led to concerns about housing affordability in the city; however, there are some measures underway aimed at addressing this issue. For example, the City Council passed a resolution in December 2014 calling for increased density within certain areas of the city in order to help address issues related to housing affordability and overcrowding.

One factor contributing towards the strong real estate market in Englewood is its close proximity to downtown Denver – just 15 minutes away by car on average (according to Google Maps). This proximity makes it easy for people living in Englewood access many amenities that are available only within downtown Denver – such as restaurants and shopping centers – without havingto leave their neighborhood boundaries. Additionally, many jobs located within downtown Denver are also accessible via public transportation (such as light rail) which makes commuting into work much easier for residents living outside of downtown Denver neighborhoods like Englewood..
