    "Lots of people walking after work, neighbors know each other, you can walk two blocks to Starbucks or to the store. Manageable sized homes with great parks nearby plus easy access to major roads and freeways, but none of the road noise. This neighborhood is a gem!"

    "We lived here for several years and loved it. Its close to i25, Tech Center, Schools and Highline Canal Trail. This area is very affordable for new families and really one of the few remaining nice areas of affordable housing. Scrapeoffs are starting to occur on the East side of Dahlia and are driving home prices up - don't wait this area will not be getting less expensive anytime soon. Lack of a park of any kind on the East side of Dahlia is a negative but very attractive area with mature trees and landscaping, decent sized lots, etc."
