What are the BAD neighborhoods in Denver? |
Travel Info Everyone has their own idea on good neighborhoods - however usually people agree on where to stay out of. So rather than asking where to go - I want to know where to stay out of. I am looking to work in Downtown Denver and have two small children. Thanks!! Travel Tips Denver West Side is sort of a bad area, although it is not as bad as it used to be. That's basically anywhere just west of I-25 along Federal Boulevard. Another bad area is around Florida Avenue and Federal Boulevard in Sheridan. There are several active gangs in that area. Take note that Federal Boulevard is mentioned twice. Be conscious of your surroundings when you're on that stretch of road and you'll be fine. Others Five Points is bad, I hear. ...ask Darrent Williams' family. I'm sure they have a couple of ideas. Aurora and Commerce City Well... traditionally, Colfax is street to stay away from. It used to be just E. Colfax, but now its pretty mixed, some parts of it are good others, not.... but downtown Denver is usually nice and pretty safe (but common sense tells you to stay out of the alleys). Its when you go out of the downtown area somewhat north and east 20 blocks north or 20 blocks east, which isnt so good. Also, Federal and 23rd north is not the safest area. There are a few pretty neat places for children though... The childrens museum, the aquarium, firefighters museum, and more. Hope that helps... Denver's my home Cars get stolen all the time especially along I25. I would worry more about car theft or your car broken into then your safety because Denver is a safer place to live. |
