Dividing line on prices in the Aurora area
Located near the east Denver suburb of Aurora, Willow Park is just under 20 miles from downtown Denver, and it’s often been considered the most affordable area in the Denver metro. “The normal impression is that houses are more affordable on the east side of Denver. Look for a similar house on the west side of Denver, and it will cost more,” says David Heisler, lead broker and co-founder of Here’s The Deal Real Estate Company. “Add to that, the houses in Aurora are more expensive on the east side of Interstate 225.”
