#52019 rank: 29
What a difference a year makes. Tony Cherry Creek fell off our 2019 list largely due to lackluster real estate sales growth, but it’s a different story today. Likely in response to explosive development in the area, Cherry Creek saw the year’s highest percentage change in home sale prices—a shocking 25 percent increase that pushed the average single family home north of $1 million. Add in the abundant amenities, access to bikeable Cherry Creek Trail, top marks for Bromwell Elementary School, and the surfeit of new hotels for visitors, and it’s easy to see why Cherry Creek is in-demand. (And almost makes one forget the area’s trying parking situation.)
