Broomfield Heights is residential with strong ties to industry

Broomfield Heights is a quiet neighborhood that offers the feel of a small town with the conveniences of a major city. Developed in the 1950s, it was the area's first planned community. Local officials and builders touted it at the time as a dream city. When the first 18 new homes opened for viewing in 1955, more than 25,000 people showed up. “Today, Broomfield Heights is beautiful homes on generous lots, with clean streets and amazing parks,” says Vinny Pallone, a Realtor with Porchlight Real Estate Group. Little wonder Broomfield Heights is still as sought-after a community as it was 73 years ago.

The local economy is thriving. Several cutting-edge aerospace and defense contractors are in the area, including Northrup Grumman and Ball Aerospace. The city is also home to the headquarters for Mrs. Fields Cookies, Noodles & Company, and several other notable firms.

Suburban streets of single-family homes

Mature shade trees and evergreens are plentiful in this sprawling neighborhood. While there is plenty of on-street parking available, homes in the community have driveways, and most have carports or garages. There are sidewalks throughout the neighborhood. The most popular home styles in Broomfield Heights are ranch-style and mid-century modern. Prices vary from $475,000 for a tidy ranch with a garage to $712,000 for a large, five-bedroom mid-century home.

Nearby parks with year-round recreation

There is a lot to do in the area when not at work or in school. The Broomfield Commons Open Space is 330 acres of green space, soccer fields, a three-mile walking trail, a dog park and a playground. Emerald Park is a small neighborhood park with picnic shelters and grills, a multipurpose field, a playground, and trails leading to other area parks.

Celebrating the community with a festival

Every September, the city puts on Broomfield Days. A true community event, it begins with a pancake breakfast, a 5k run and a parade. There are duck races, food trucks and music. Originally attended by a few hundred people, more than 100,000 attended last year.

Broomfield's local and chain restaurants and retail

The neighborhood is close to several large shopping centers. There is a King Soopers grocery store within walking distance. Target, Walmart, Macy’s and other big box stores are all less than five miles from Broomfield Heights.

Whether you just want to grab a quick bite, or you are planning a special night out, there are plenty of options. “Broomfield Heights has a great mix of local eateries and national chains,” says Pallone. Original Pizza is the oldest and best restaurant in Broomfield Heights. Jus’ Burritos makes the best breakfast place in town. Hickory & Ash defines itself as an American meatery. It specializes in fine cuts of beef cooked to perfection.

Commuting in and around Broomfield Heights

“The neighborhood is equal distance from Boulder and Denver. It’s centrally situated on the North Metro Corridor, and it’s perfect for families or couples who might have jobs in both places,” says Realtor Pallone. Local bus companies have routes to both cities. Broomfield Easy Ride is a transportation service run by the city that offers rides to older adults and those with disabilities.
