What to expect in City Center, Aurora’s downtown
City Center is a lively Aurora neighborhood, Denver's largest suburb. To the west are shops and restaurants in strip malls and the Town Center at Aurora. Multifamily developments are common, and some single-family homes have a presence as well. Several parks are within a 10-minute drive. Interstate 225 runs through the area and facilitates commutes to employment areas, such as the Denver Tech Center, to the south, and Anschutz Medical Campus, to the north.
Town Center at Aurora is more than just a retail destination
The Town Center at Aurora is an indoor mall with department stores and a food court. It is also home to several entertainment options, such as the FieldhouseUSA indoor recreation center and the Cinemark Century Aurora and XD theater. “That’s what we use to determine downtown Aurora, so that was our downtown before they built the Southlands area. That was the congregating place. That was our closest mall for many, many years,” says Cindy Dassinger, broker and owner of Metro Home Finders, Inc., who grew up in the area. “They really dumped some money in. They did remodeling on the outside, brought new retailers in, did the exit off the highway to make it easier for people. That’s when people started taking notice, and new builders tried to push as close as they could to build there. So, it’s still up and coming.” Helga’s Haus & Bier Garden is a German restaurant located close by in the Aurora City Square strip mall.
You can see many people at town center food court.
Helga's Haus and Bier Garden in City Center serves delicious and authentic German fare.

Not all shopping and dining options are at the mall
Abilene Street leads to Sam’s Club, Home Depot and Best Buy. Nearby dining options include Bua Traditional Thai Cuisine and Guadalajara Family Mexican Restaurant. “There’s a lot more than there used to be when I lived over there. With all the new shops and restaurants that have gone in, people have a lot more options for going out,” says Managing Broker Chad Hart with Hart Realty Group, who has over 15 years of experience.
With many options to get around, City Center offers easy commutes
City Center commuters have many options for getting to the Denver Tech Center, Anschutz Medical Campus and the Denver International Airport. Transit options include:
Regional Transportation District buses, with stops throughout the neighborhood
The light rail at the Aurora Metro Center Station
Interstate 225, to the west of the neighborhood
City Center offers access to the outdoors for recreation
Settler’s Park includes a half basketball court and playground. Additional outdoor areas are within a 5- to 10-minute drive away, in the neighborhoods of Aurora Hills and City Center North:
Bicentennial Park has an off-leash dog park.
The Aurora Hills Golf Course is open to the public with 18 public holes.
City Center Park includes the High Line Canal Trail, which spans 71 miles.
A covered picnic area is available in Aurora's City Center Park.

Cost of living in Aurora’s City Center, where renting is common
City Center has many apartments and condos. Over three-quarters of the neighborhood’s residential properties are rented. Contemporary 1980s homes are also common. The median home price is in the lower $200,000s, and the median household income is in the lower $50,000s. “People looking to live in Denver are going to see that the value here on the east side is a lot better dollar-for-dollar than the homes available in the west,” Hart says.
City Center residents can show off their personalities with more uncommon home colors.
Homes in the City Center neighborhood often feature large driveways and two-car garages.

Aurora Public Schools and career-based learning opportunities
City Center is in the Aurora Public Schools district attendance boundary, where school choice is an option.

Students enrolled at Gateway can take career and technical education courses, some of which put them in a position to earn college credits and certifications. The ProStart pathway introduces students to the hospitality and tourism industry; meanwhile, the Constructech program provides an overview of construction trades.
Students may attend Tollgate Elementary School.
Aurora Hills Middle School is a public school in the area.
