Stapleton Reviews
Rating 4.07 out of 5 45 reviews
Stapleton is a newer community in Denver. It does not have the character of the inner city neighborhoods yet, although every year as the trees get bigger and the restaurants and shops multiply, it feels more and more like a true city neighborhood. It is just a short drive to City Park, the science and nature museum, RHINO and Colfax. We have so many parks and trails, pools and an amazing recreation center. Lots of grocery shopping options, with more being built. It is a master planned community with incredible diversity of architecture. The schools are some of the best in Denver. Friendly neighbors and tons going on like farmer market and summer concerts and plays in our two outdoor grassy amphitheaters. A great place to raise a family or just live close in to Denver with a ton of amenities and a nice newer home. Fantastic, incredible neighborhood and I think it will only grow more and more desirable as it ages and becomes established and the trees and landscape develop.
Stapleton is wonderful and NOT cookie cutter...with more housing styles than other neighborhoods. The semi-urban planning has done well overall...and the neighborhood is not finished..so more positive aspects can still be expected. It's a great blend of urban and suburban...while being close to downtown and central to the metro. Most neighborhood schools are A rated (which is not often seen in Denver Public Schools). There are several restaurants and retail mixed within the community, lots of recreation, parks, and trails galore. The front porches, pocket parks, and larger Denver parks are designed to get folks out in the community... instead of being in their back yards. Crime is almost exclusively only property crime from criminals trying to take advantage of the neighborhood higher overall income. Affordable housing is mixed in nicely with market-rate housing, but more affordable units is needed in north Stapleton.
Stapleton is the ideal place to raise young kids, with a variety of parks, playgrounds, and quality schools nearby. It's a close-knit, neighborly community and the residents are very friendly and respectful. It feels like a suburb even though it's in an urban area. Although many of the residents here have common beliefs, it is one of the more expensive places to live with signs of gentrification, upscale restaurants, and wide space. If I were to change one thing about Stapleton, I would wish that the diversity increased, as the neighborhood is majority white.
