As Denver's population started to really expand, Clayton, Cole, Whittier and Skyland became some of the first neighborhoods to actually be called suburbs of the big city. Their tree-lined streets have mostly single-family homes built in the early 1900s, and some of the more historic buildings still stand.
City Park, Denver's largest, is just to the south. Which means there's always a whole lot of something going on for the surrounding neighborhoods. In the summer, there's a Jazz Series in the park. The Natural History Museum and Denver Zoo are nearby too. And, because the city is so close, residents always have great options.
Recently, it's been pegged an up-and-coming place to be, so look for signs of gentrification, bringing new businesses to the area.
