    "I ride my bicycle to work. Denver drivers drive too fast, but the narrow streets and decent bike lanes make it work okay."

    "There’s heavy traffic and is apartment focused. The side walks are nice and wash park is in walking distance but unless you have a designated yard it isn’t incredibly dog friendly"

    "The best restaurants in town are all close by. Being walking/bike riding distance from Washington Park and the Baker district on Broadway are two huge pluses. I grew up in this city and genuinely love this area of Denver! "

    "It’s a really pleasant place to live and to walk around. There are a lot of unique homes and big old trees. It’s relatively quiet and street parking is reasonable on most blocks. There are extreme luxury apartments in the area but most are modest and it’s possible to find affordable rent. "

    "West Wash Park is a great area, as Denver has so many neat pockets it is only possible to be in one and centrally located to the others (Baker, Wash Park, Downtown, Cherry Creek; oh, and Highway 6 to the mountains!). "
