Wheat Ridge | Colorado Neighborhood Guide
One of our Wheat Ridge Listings
In recent years, Wheat Ridge has seen a surge in popularity thanks to its spacious homes, large lots and proximity to The Greater Highlands neighborhoods. With rising prices in neighboring areas, more people are flocking to Wheat Ridge for larger lots and a quieter lifestyle, without sacrificing urban convenience. The housing boom has led to a flurry of development, with new construction projects popping up and existing homes (often sprawling ranches) in high demand. Crown Hill Park offers outdoor enthusiasts plenty of biking and walking trails, adding to the neighborhood's appeal as a suburban sanctuary.
With its proximity to other shopping and restaurant hubs, Wheat Ridge isn’t a dining destination for most. But, with the massive influx of new, more city-centric residents, it will be interesting to see how it evolves!
