Hale offers a settled feeling with older homes, condos and parks

Hale is a lively neighborhood, approximately 15 minutes away from Denver, that offers a range of housing options.

Major employers, such as Rose Medical Center, are a short drive away for some and walking distance for others. Denver thoroughfares — Colfax Avenue and Colorado Boulevard — run through the area and serve as commercial hubs with many restaurants and shops.

Average home prices and rental options in Hale

Since 2021, average home values have steadily increased to the mid-$700,000s. Values are consistently about $70,000 higher than the average in the Denver metro area. “In that [Hale] area specifically, there are quite a few condos. There are rentals and homes that are owner-occupied there. If you go a little farther west, there are single-family homes, so a little bit of everything,” says Heather McChesney, a realtor with Keller Williams Preferred Realty, who has over a decade of experience. Many condo complexes were built between the 1950s and 1970s, so some condos may require renovation. Some single-family homes date back to the 1920s and may require repairs that homebuyers should budget for when purchasing a new home in Hale. Prominent architectural styles include Tudor Revival, brick bungalow and Minimal Traditional.

You can find anything you need in Denver. There are plenty of local businesses but then, I live in the city. There are big chain stores around town that are easily accessible if I find that local owners can't provide me/charge more than I'm willing to pay for something.

I've loved living here. The diversity and walkability are great! The cost of housing is very high, as is everywhere right now, so that is a concern.
