La Fogata Mexican cuisine and the Cherry Creek North Mall

“It’s an easily accessible area. There are pockets close by that are super high-end. Virginia Village and University Hills are both adjacent,” says Christine Belin, a Denver local and Broker Associate at Evernest, LLC, with over ten years of experience in real estate. “This is kind of where the heart of I-25 is and Cherry Creek North is extremely close as well, which is a super affluent area.” Pantaleone’s is a pizza place that gathered a local following after appearing on Gordon Ramsay’s “Kitchen Nightmares.” La Fogata is a family-owned Mexican restaurant with margaritas and fajitas. Safeway is less than a mile south on Yale Avenue, and King Soopers is two miles west on Colorado Boulevard.

Colorado is the only place I have experienced all four seasons in the same day. Starting with snow and ending in the 60's and this happens regularly. We get a lot of snow in a single storm but it usually warms up and melts away in just a few days.

I've never felt like I was in danger, weird to not see a neighborhood watch but I guess the crime rate is low here.

There's no opt much around here other than a King Soopers and a Safeway down the street. Surprisingly you have to go quite far to find a Walmart and the nearest mall is Park Meadows which is also a travel. So I do wish there were more retail stores near me because the shopping centers really need an upgrade to keep up with theveryone future.

It's an ok area to live in. Some areas near my home are pretty sketchy but I have access to everything I need and it's the cheapest area I could find close to the school I attend.
