Denver Real Estate by Denver Neighborhoods

LOCAL Matters. Period. By choosing to patronize locally owned establishments and buy locally made or grown products, you have made a positive impact on our community in many ways.

1. Environment. By buying things made closer to home, you’re cutting down on fossil fuel use, reducing your carbon impact and saving money.

2. Local Economy. Local businesses buy more often from other local businesses, so the money you spend is retained in the community in a more concentrated fashion.

3. Local Flavor. The experience at a local establishment is completely unique — providing the local flavor of the unique neighborhood it resides in.

4. Community Care. Local entrepreneurs are more connected to our community because they live here, too. They are more likely than their competitors  to get involved in  community efforts.

5. Voicing Your Opinion. You are voting with your dollar to say, “Hey, I like this place and the neighborhood wouldn’t be the same without it.”

Denver has so many great neighborhood restaurants and shops– a few of my favorites are The Cherry Tomato in Park Hill. An award winning, over and over again, Italian restaurant! And Moongate, located in Montclair– an Asian mix of all you could desire! And how about the neighborhood hardware store? Try True Value on Colfax, just west of Monaco Pkwy– they always have what I’m looking for! They do window screen repair plus there is an awesome bike shop upstairs!
