Denver

Denver's park side classic sits south of downtown, around a 165 acre park of two lakes and a 2.6 mile loop. The first report is Washington Park, the neighborhood built around that park.

Metro Snapshot

Washington Park sets the first comparison points. Its Redfin median sale price of $2,174,391 (three months ending September 2026, up 35.9 percent year over year, on 42 sales) buys a Walk Score of 70 at 1040 South Gaylord Street, an average one bedroom apartment rent of $1,685 (Zumper, October 31, 2026), and a taxi to Lower Downtown of 4.6 miles in 9 minutes. Around it, the city brackets the range: Platt Park sits lower to the west and south, Congress Park sits lower to the northeast, and Cherry Creek sits lower but still above a million to the north.
