Boulder.
Boulder is the Flatirons and the greenbelt, and the greenbelt is a big part of why houses cost what they do here.
The housing
What to expect in the area.
The housing runs from Victorian and early brick near the downtown core, through mid century in the middle of the city, to modern building where it has been allowed.
The streets
What it is like to live there.
The Flatirons stand directly above the city, and the open space greenbelt rings it, which is why Boulder ends where it does instead of sprawling. Pearl Street is the pedestrian core, and the University of Colorado sits in the middle of town.
At market
What to know before you buy.
Boulder's growth limits and open space policy are why so few houses come up for sale here. The city's rules on additions, ADUs and short term rentals differ from Denver's, and they are worth checking early.
