Recent Zillow Market Trends show median monthly rent around $2,000, with most listings in the past few months ranging roughly $1,400–$2,700, depending on size and proximity to CSU and Old Town. Daily life revolves around local staples such as King Soopers Campus West, Mugs Coffee Lounge, Krazy Karl’s Pizza, and casual eateries and breweries nearby; Old Town’s restaurants, patios, and weekly farmers market are a short ride away. Green spaces abound—City Park with Sheldon Lake, Lee Martinez Park and The Farm—and Horsetooth Reservoir is an easy weekend escape for hiking, paddling, and sunset picnics. The area is pet friendly, family welcoming, and well served by Transfort buses, with walkable pockets near CSU and along Elizabeth and Mountain avenues.
