Northglenn started as a planned suburb, and it shows

Northglenn began in 1959 as a 280-acre planned subdivision by Perl-Mack, and in 1961 Life magazine and the National Association of Home Builders called it the most perfectly planned community in America. Residents voted to incorporate in 1964, though it wasn't official until 1969 after a Colorado Supreme Court ruling.

Today the city has about 38,287 people (U.S. Census Bureau estimate, July 1, 2024), 28 parks and more than 35 miles of off-street trails in its Greenway Trail System.

Rail to Union Station

The RTD N Line opened its Northglenn/112th station in September 2020, so you can ride commuter rail to Denver Union Station instead of sitting on I-25. Downtown Denver is only about 10 to 11 miles south. Most of the housing dates from the 1960s through the 1980s, which means ranches, split-levels and established lots rather than new metro-district subdivisions.

Is now a good time to sell in Northglenn?
