Named after a subset of trees common to the area, the city of Englewood sits less than 7 miles south of downtown Denver in Arapahoe County. The city is known for its transit-oriented layout, healthcare and modern urban development. “Englewood is fiercely independent, quirky, gritty, creative and innovative. It has managed to maintain its own identity – a small-town feeling – all while embracing future development,” says Chris Harguth, the City of Englewood’s Director of Communications.
Englewood’s top industries include healthcare, telecommunications and finance. The city’s wellness district is home to the HCA HealthONE Swedish Medical Center and Craig Hospital, employing hundreds of health providers in the area. Other major employers include Liberty Global, Comcast Corporation and Western Union Co.
Swedish Medical Center is a short drive from Bates-Logan Park.

New and old residential developments
Englewood is comprised of about 11 neighborhoods. Neighborhoods surrounding downtown, such as South Broadway Heights and Maddox, are filled with single-story homes and apartment complexes. Farther north of downtown, homes increase in value. Areas like Bates-Logan Park have single-story Craftsman homes and traditional multi-story houses. There are also condos, duplexes and multi-story townhouses. “Englewood offers a wide range of housing options, from well-established neighborhoods like Arapahoe Acres, known for their historical stability, to newly developed multi-family residences in transit-oriented areas,” Harguth says. The median price for single-family homes in the city is around $650,000, while townhouses go for $490,000.

Shopping and dining in Downtown Englewood
Downtown Englewood is sectioned into three districts with retail and dining. CityCenter is a 55-acre, mixed-use district with apartment buildings sitting atop name-brand retailers. At the center of downtown, South Broadway is a walkable main street area lined with local shops, such as clothing boutiques, thrift stores and bookstores, and restaurants, like casual bistros, breakfast spots and pizzerias. “Englewood’s culinary scene is a reflection of its diverse community,” Harguth says. “The city’s ‘Eat, Explore, Enjoy!’ campaign encourages residents and visitors to experience all the food, drinks and art offerings.”
Lastly, the wellness district is a hub for healthcare, with numerous small businesses such as salons and alternative medicine clinics. When the weather gets warmer, the Englewood Summer Market has a lineup of fresh produce and homemade products at the Civic Center.

Englewood, specifically CityCenter, is a premier transportation hub.

There’s also the Englewood Trolley, which has 19 stops within the city. “Easy access to light rail, bus and public transit, and access to great shops and restaurants, make this area particularly interesting to homebuyers and developers,” Harguth says. Drivers can access U.S. Route 85 and head north into Denver. U.S. Route 285 cuts across the city, traveling east to west. The area also has bike paths that connect to regional trail systems. Centennial Airport is about 12 miles away for general aviation operations. The Denver International Airport is roughly 28 miles away for commercial flights.
