Best In Colorado Real Estate™: Denver

Denver leads Colorado in in-migration decline—4.0% year-over-year between 2021-22 and 2022-23, according to ALEX Intelligence’s analysis of IRS county-to-county migration data. This isn't a sign of economic weakness, but a structural shift: affordability is now the primary filter for new residents. As the Kansas City Fed notes, Denver’s cost of living remains among the highest in the 10th District, reinforcing this trend. Meanwhile, adjacent counties like Weld and Adams continue to attract households, signaling a decentralization of metro growth.
