Arvada Overview
A thriving municipality in the hub of Jefferson and Adams counties, Arvada is located just a few short miles from the state capital of Denver. Known for its impressive historic district as well as its convenience and abundance of nearby amenities, this idyllic locale is a great place to consider for anyone in the market for a new home in Colorado.
What is the history of Arvada?
The gold rush of the 1850s brought settlers en masse to the area, and Arvada was established shortly after. The Colorado Central Radio saw completion in 1871, adding even more to the local population, and the township was officially incorporated in 1904. Agriculture helped fuel the regional economy, with Arvada even earning the tag the 'Celery Capital of the World' for a time. Throughout the 1900s the city grew impressively as a suburb of Denver, and is currently home to over 100,000 residents.
How is the weather in Arvada?
Those residing in Arvada apartments can expect weather that is best described as 'eclectic'. Highs and lows tend to vary from day to day in this Colorado township, with summers often hot and winters prone to snow. Still, sudden storms or even snowfall as late as June has been reported in recent years, and the city is pretty much a prime example of 'if you don't like the weather, just wait a minute'.
How do I get around town?
Most living in apartments in Arvada own at least one car or truck for getting around, although the Denver Regional Transportation District offers much in the way of bus service, with close to a dozen routes criss-crossing the city. Union Station is nearby and acts as a hub for not only extended Amtrak Train service, but also a direct rail line that leads all the way to the Denver International Airport. Bicycling is also very popular in the city, with Arvada recently being designated a Silver Level Bicycle Friendly Community.
What is the Arvada commute like?
Interstate 76 is the primary roadway in the city limits, leading to State Highway 121 and beyond. I-25 is also very popular with commuters, and can see its fair share of sluggish conditions on most work days. U.S. Highway 36 is another option for those living in Arvada rentals, and traffic around the downtown scene tends to move at a reasonable pace for the most part. Wadsworth Blvd is the most retail-heavy roadway in town.
What are the local media outlets?
The 'Arvada Press' is a major newspaper in the city, with a number of regional arts and entertainment listing periodicals found nearby as well. Radio leans towards traditional formats like classic rock, modern hits and news talk formats, while broadcast television is readily available to most Arvada apartments for rent.
Why live in Arvada, CO?
Offering utmost convenience to the job market and excitement of Denver, this Colorado suburb is an excellent choice for a wide array of lifestyles, from students to budding families. Area schools are well regarded, and the backdrop of the scenic Colorado countryside and Rocky Mountains does little to disuade potential residents of this charming city.
What Arvada landmarks should I see?
The 'Olde Town' section of the city is brimming with stately, historic structures, higlighted by an instantly-recognizable water tower. The Cussler Museum collects the famed author's prize assortment of rare automobiles, and is located just a short drive from many Arvada rentals. Gold Strike Park's cable bridge is yet another local landmark well worthy of a visit, offering premium background scenery for photos.
What is there to do around Arvada?
Enjoy a night of laughs at the legendary Comedy Works Club, or stroll among the impressive tulip displays at one of the numerous local public parks. Water World is a great place to beat the summer heat, complete with a wave pool, and Shadowlight Theater offers an abundance of stage performances throughout the year.
Any annual festivals or Arvada events to know?
The Kite Festival takes to the skies every year, and remains a hit with old and young alike. The Great Sand Sculpture Competition draws artistic-types from all over the state, and the annual Harvest Fest and Parade combines local crafts and plenty of live music.
Where are the nearby vacation spots?
Hit the road to Boulder, home to an impressive range of eateries and boutique stores, or spend a weekend immmersed in the mountain beauty of Estes Park, home to the Stanley Hotel made famous by Stephen King's novel 'The Shining'! Camping, fishing and hiking are all within easy reach from most Arvada apartments.
