Best In Colorado Real Estate™: Denver

94.7% of Denver’s cities now have median home values above $500,000—what does that mean for the city’s future? This isn’t a price trend; it’s a structural shift. The $500K threshold is no longer a milestone—it’s the new floor. For Denver, the challenge isn’t just rising prices, but whether the market can still serve those who didn’t cross it. This data comes from ALEX Intelligence’s latest analysis of the 2024 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, published October 25, 2026: https://alex-companies.com/data/2026-10-25-denver-threshold-home-value-500000-place.
