Capitol Hill
Life for urban hipsters is pretty good in Denver’s Capitol Hill. The eclectic mix of residents matches the equally eclectic architecture—Queen Anne mansions snuggle up to three-story walkouts and remodeled vintage buildings are transformed into contemporary condominiums. It’s easy to walk or cycle to groceries, coffee shops, bars, clubs, downtown, colleges, museums, parks, and to the gold-domed state capitol for which the neighborhood is named. Denver’s diverse urban culture thrives here. It’s an ideal introduction to the city if you’re new to town—lots of people to meet and places to see all within steps of your front door.
