The prime location of City Center North
Center City North is located at the heart of Aurora and is known for its central location and easy access to nearby attractions and amenities. “This is the best neighborhood in the area to live in if you are dependent on public transportation,” says Jim Gibson, a real estate agent with HomeStar Realty who grew up in Aurora. The community is home to several public transportation opportunities and is within reach of I-225, making commutes into downtown Denver and neighboring shopping malls a breeze.

The busy sidewalks of South Evanston Way
The residential cove of City Center North sits in the center of commerce areas to the east and open fields to the right. South Evanston Way winds its way through the center with established bike and on-street parking lanes running parallel. Breaking off are the residential streets, mostly composed of condominium complexes and townhomes, where “residents are always out and walking around,” says Gibson. Almost all of these were constructed in the early 1980s, with some being built in the 2000s, and can range in price from $150,000 for a one-bedroom condo to $400,000 for a larger three-bedroom townhouse. Traditional-style homes with gray stone tile roofs can be found peeking from behind mature oak trees. The modest front yards are home to sidewalks that lead to cul-de-sacs found at the end of each street. Those looking to purchase a house in the neighborhood can expect a range from $400,000 for a two-bedroom home to $510,000 for a three-bedroom home constructed more recently. It is also worth mentioning that homeowners association fees are present within most of these complexes and subdivisions and tend to vary from one to another.
