$2,123/mo median rent

Rent is expensive here, at $2,123 a month median and well above the national average. This is the kind of city where housing costs deserve serious budgeting before committing to a move. Home prices are steep, with a median around $1,237,800. Renting first to get a feel for the city before buying is often the more practical route.

3.9% county unemployment

Unemployment in Arapahoe County is 3.9%, close to the national average of 4.3%. That's the county-wide rate; BLS doesn't measure a place this size on its own.

349 violent crimes per 100k

Crime runs about typical for a city this size. Some neighborhoods are safer than others, and one overall rate doesn't tell the whole story, so a neighborhood-level look matters more than the headline stat.

20 min average commute

Commutes are reasonable, averaging 19.9 minutes. Nothing heroic, and there's still time left over for a life after work. 6 in 10 workers drive to work; 32% work from home.

79% bachelor's degree or higher

This is a highly educated city, with over half the adult population holding a college degree. That tends to shape the job market and the broader culture, and it's a solid indicator of a strong professional scene.
