Broomfield is a sprawling city east of the Rocky Mountains, which also became Colorado’s newest county in 2001. “It is pretty much in the middle of Denver and Boulder, so it’s a popular city for anyone who works in either one of those locations but wants to be flexible for job movement in the future,” says Renee O’Lear, a local 8z Real Estate Realtor and partner licensed since 2013. Colorado’s technology corridor runs through Broomfield, including headquarters for Fortune 500 Companies, such as the Oracle and Lumen.
Broomfield’s population is up to 76,000, an increase of 3.7% as of 2023. The city is both adding more housing and expanding its offerings, such as establishing various parks and pockets of natural space. “A reason people live here over Denver is it’s more family oriented with better schools, and a reason they live here over Boulder is the price. Boulder is more expensive, and as you move farther away, it gets cheaper.”
Broomfield's proximity to the foothills offers residents stunning views & outdoor adventure.
