Englewood is a compact, centrally located inner-ring suburb directly south of Denver, known for its walkable downtown along South Broadway, strong transit access, and proximity to the Swedish Medical Center campus. With just 35,000 residents, it offers a smaller-city feel with the advantages of a central location — close to everything without the sprawl of larger suburbs.
Located about 7 miles south of downtown Denver, bordered by Denver to the north and east. Commute to downtown is 15–20 minutes via Broadway/Santa Fe or the RTD light rail from the Englewood station. I-25 is minutes east via Hampden Avenue. The DTC is 10 minutes south.
A mix of mid-century ranch homes, updated bungalows, newer townhomes and condos near the CityCenter, and some historic homes in the Baker-adjacent northern neighborhoods. Housing is generally more affordable than comparable Denver neighborhoods.
Englewood Schools is a small, community-oriented district. The eastern edge falls within Cherry Creek School District. Colorado's Finest Alternative High School and Englewood High School serve the area. The district's small size allows for personalized attention.
South Broadway (SoBo) runs through Englewood with antique shops, dive bars, and independent restaurants. CityCenter Englewood, built on a former Cinderella City mall site, combines retail with the light rail station. Belleview Park offers a miniature train ride, petting zoo, and picnic areas. Broken Tee Golf Course and Pirates Cove water park provide recreation. The Swedish Medical Center campus is a major employer.
Young professionals and creatives drawn to the SoBo scene, first-time buyers seeking affordability close to central Denver, medical professionals near Swedish, and longtime residents who appreciate the small-city feel. Englewood attracts buyers who want Denver-adjacent living at a lower price point.
Englewood punches above its weight — it's a compact city with light rail, a walkable retail corridor, and proximity to both downtown Denver and the DTC, all at price points that make it one of the most undervalued locations in the metro.
