Residential streets with outdoor retreats
The word “exposition” might trigger images of large conference halls and a sea of crowds, but the community’s name comes from its main attraction — Expo Park, a 57-acre green space rich with amenities. “Expo Park is within the overarching subdivision of Queensborough, built between 1970 and 1972, and it’s right next to Aurora’s largest park. Expo Park was kind of the answer to the development of Denver’s Washington Park,” says Dan Bloomquist, associate broker with RE/MAX Realty, who has over 50 years of experience in the industry and has sold homes in the area since its inception in the ‘70s. “Yet the huge draw to the area is the Cherry Creek School District. It’s hard to find homes under $500,000 within that district. So great schools, affordable homes and the location are really some of the biggest benefits,” Bloomquist says.
Expo Park is a great choice with its plethora of outdoor attractions and great schools.
Expo Park is an expansive greenspace with a pond and many trails.

Condos, townhouses and 1970s single-family homes
Traditional suburban homes from the 1970s, townhouses and low-rise condominiums within walking distance of the park make up most of Expo Park’s housing inventory.

Condos in the area typically range from the low $100,000s to the upper $200,000s for a two-bedroom unit with modern updates. The median sales price for a single-family home hovers around $484,000, with home prices ranging from the low $300,000s to the upper $500,000s for a renovated, three-bedroom Split-Level.

Annual events in Aurora
Although locals can always head to downtown Denver for a night of entertainment, the City of Aurora also hosts various annual events, such as Carnival on the Plaza. Every summer, a short drive leads residents to the echoing sounds and vibrant landscape of Fletcher Plaza, full of carnival rides, games, and fun. However, the season’s biggest event is the annual Arapahoe County Fair, featuring live music, rides, 4-H competitions and more.
Downtown commutes on the light rail
Expo Park residents have a range of public transit options at their doorstep. Bordering thoroughfares like East Mississippi Avenue and South Peoria Street offer a range of bus stops.

Jetsetters looking for a bigger adventure can head to Denver International Airport. “Locals have easy access to downtown. 225 is west of the neighborhood, while the hospital is right there as well. Everything you really need is right there,” Bloomquist says, with The Medical Center of Aurora just 2 miles away.
