    "It's an actual neighborhood just off of downtown as opposed to a collection of renters who don't know anyone. I mistakenly indicated you need a car to get around. You don't. A bike to get to 17th or Welton or downtown is all you need!"

    "Want to be close to downtown but don't want to have to deal with the crazy traffic? Are you and your friends sick of trying to find street parking? Then Whittier is a great place for you. I ride my bike 10 minutes into downtown (less than a mile) or walk, but when I leave to drive somewhere the traffic is pretty light and easy to get around. The lightrail also stops in Whittier so that makes it easy to get other places in Denver as well. Love living here"
