Neighborhood love: Park Hill

Another favorite neighborhood we're looking at is Park Hill. The charm of the houses in Park Hill is so great.



Description from the American Planning Association:

The largest share of Denver's tree-lined parkways is located in Park Hill. Developed at the height of the City Beautiful movement, these "shaded drives," used frequently by runners and walkers, are at least 10 degrees cooler during the city's hot and dry summers. Nearby amenities include City Park, Denver's largest; the Denver Museum of Nature and Science; and the Denver Zoo.

There's lots of trees and brick bungalows and random pockets of cute restaurants/retailers. There's also a lot of young families, so it's safe and I know the schools are decent (great for resale value). However, there are *very* few homes below 30th Ave in our price range. So unless we get creative (or give up on that second bathroom) this one might be a stretch!
