Northglenn on a path of growth
Nine miles north of Denver, the city of Northglenn was originally a master-planned community built in the late 1950s with lots of open space for parks. By 1962, it had 10,000 residents. In the past two decades, development has added newer housing, and with easy access to employers in Denver and Boulder, homes are in high demand. Northglenn's population now exceeds 38,000, and special events and recreational opportunities draw people together. “Northglenn is a great little community; it’s smaller and a bit older with a great price of entry for buyers,” says Realtor Ann Wymore, owner of North Star Team with nine years of experience in Colorado real estate. “It’s a mixture of people who have been here for a long time and new people moving in, so it’s very welcoming and warm.”
Those who work in Northglenn often find jobs in healthcare, retail and construction, but commuting to Denver or Boulder is common. Denver’s biggest employers are the Denver International Airport and Lockheed Martin, while the University of Colorado Boulder is that city’s biggest employer.
In Northglenn, nothing is out of reach, with parks and shopping centers scattered around.
Lockheed Martin is one of Denver's largest employers.

Friendly price points in Northglenn
The average housing value is $500,000 in Northglenn, lower than Denver’s average of $717,000. Homes are on the market for an average of 29 days. “It’s definitely limited inventory because of that starter home price point,” says Justin Pfeifer, a Realtor with RE/MAX Northwest who grew up in Northglenn. “There has been a lot of turnover, so it’s becoming a younger population.” Single-family homes range from about $350,000 to $700,000. Many have at least four bedrooms and over 2,000 square feet of living space. A few homes with 3,000 square feet of space approach $800,000. Newer townhomes in the city's north and the east sections generally have three bedrooms and range from $300,000 to $525,000. There are also pockets of two- and three-bedroom condos in the south and east that range from $175,000 to $425,000. “In the last ten to fifteen years, people that have bought there have seen a lot of good equity in their purchase” says Pfeifer.
New traditional homes began filling cul-de-sacs within the last 20 years in Northglenn.
Colonial Revival condos in Northglenn list between 365,000 and 459,000 dollars.

Northglenn Recreation Center and public parks
Lots of sunshine and low humidity make the summer comfortable for hiking, biking and playing in the parks, while cold, snowy winters make Northglenn’s newly renovated recreation center a big draw. The center has an indoor lap pool with a new Ninja-style obstacle course, as well as a gym, indoor playground and fitness center. The warmer months bring baseball players and dog-walkers to Northwest Open Space. E.B. Rains Jr. Memorial Park’s 28 acres includes playgrounds and picnic tables, and Webster Lake centers the park, where kayakers glide among the wild geese. Throughout the year, the community gathers at Boondocks Food & Fun for birthday celebrations and amusement park attractions. Bowlers hit the lanes, while adventure seekers race Go-Karts and climb the ropes course.

City investment enlivens Northglenn
Northglenn opened a new city hall in September 2024, with state-of-the-art sustainability features that make it the first “NetZero” municipal building in Colorado. The building features two large lobbies and community event spaces. The city also operates the Parsons Center, which presents films and community theatre productions. It recently hosted a performance by the Second City troupe, famous for producing shows for Saturday Night Live comedians. The city holds a Pirate Fest in September at E.B. Rains Jr. Memorial Park with food, music and a cardboard boat regatta. And the annual July 4th Festival kicks off with a car show and features music, a beer garden, paddle boating and a Rotary Duck Derby.

Adams 12 Five Star Schools district includes Northglenn schools
Colorado residents may choose which school to apply for even if they are not districted for a particular school. Northglenn public schools are overseen by the Adams 12 Five Star Schools district, which is graded B-plus by Niche. Northglenn High School focuses on problem-based learning and technology for all students. “The nice thing about the high school is that it has a really good STEM program. That’s allowed people to stay in the district as opposed to choosing elsewhere,” says Pfeifer. Any high school student in the district can apply for the FutureForward program offering career and technical education.
Northglenn High School boasts a commendable B- rating on Niche, reflecting its commitment to providing quality education and a supportive learning environment.
