Why Live in Wheat Ridge

Wheat Ridge, Colorado sits about 12 miles from the Front Range and 6 miles from Downtown Denver, giving residents weekday access to city jobs and weekend access to mountain trails, peaks and waterfalls. The community has an outdoors-focused feel, with parks, golf courses and small lakes spread throughout, plus indoor things to do at the Wheat Ridge Recreation Center, 3rd Shot Pickleball Court and Lifetime Fitness when the weather is extreme. Interstate 70 runs through the area, connecting directly to the mountains, downtown and Denver International Airport about 25 miles away, and the Regional Transportation District G Line offers rail access into central Denver. West 38th Avenue, known as The Ridge at 38, is a local hub with small businesses, restaurants and shops, while nearby Centerplace Shopping Center in Arvada brings in big box stores, grocery options and national retailers. Housing ranges from suburban streets lined with bungalows and split-level homes, mixing older and newer construction, to larger custom builds in styles like Tudor Revival and New Traditional in areas such as Applewood Villages. Wheat Ridge’s history as the former “Carnation Capital of the World” is reflected in the annual Carnation Festival each August, which features a parade, live music and community events. Families are served by Jefferson County School District No. R-1, which is highly rated and includes Wheat Ridge High School, known locally for its strong record in athletics.
