The Knolls is a desirable suburb south of Denver
If you’re looking for a cozy suburb with access to the city, The Knolls in Centennial, Colorado, is a good option. Just southeast of Downtown Denver, houses are more expensive relative to the Greater Denver Area. Still, thanks to good schools, a central location and an influential homeowners association, the neighborhood is only becoming more desirable. Like other auto-centric cities, Denver is sprawling as it grows, and communities that were once on the outskirts, like The Knolls, are now central.
Wide residential streets offer ample room for street parking in The Knolls neighborhood.
The Knolls neighborhood is bordered by Colorado Avenue to the east.

A bikeable suburb with 28 miles of trails and growing
Streets are very broad in The Knolls; sidewalks are slim, and tall conifers and deciduous trees populate yards. The streets slope and meander gently, and the open feel of the neighborhood slows the pulse. A bikeable greenway called the Big Dry Creek Trail weaves in and around this 1-square-mile locality, buffered by stretches of parkland. Currently, there are 28 miles of bike trails in the city connecting 600 acres of parkland. Centennial city planners intend to build 108 additional miles of trails throughout the county. Greater Denver is an outdoorsy place, and The Knolls is no different. Cherry Knolls Park is a finger-shaped green space of about 200 acres separating residential streets from the commerce on University Boulevard. There’s wild space and creeks to tromp in, fields and courts and playgrounds to play in and small hills to sled down in this neighborhood park.
