3+ week, 1+ day ago (460+ words) After wild fluctuations during COVID, Denver's residential real estate market stabilized and hit reset in October. "The Denver market has, in many ways, hit its "reset button," said Amanda Snitker, chair of the DMAR Market Trends Committee, in October's Denver Metro Association of Realtors' report. "We're not witnessing volatility. We're seeing normalization. For real estate professionals, this means grounding our strategies in data and confidence, rather than relying on headlines or memories of the past." Key indicators tell a clear story. End-of-month inventory rose by 14% year-over-year, while new listings dropped by 5% during the same time. Those inventory numbers suggest that while more homes are available, fewer are entering the market'a trend that points to a recalibration, rather than a dramatic collapse or surge. "The market today is not a version of what it once was; it's a new ecosystem entirely,…...

4+ week, 1+ day ago (447+ words) Nearly 73% of Denver homeowners carry a mortgage. That's the second-highest rate in the country, behind only Washington, D.C., according to Realtor.com research. Nationally, homeowners own nearly 40% of U.S. homes outright, marking the highest percentage ever recorded. But Denver's mortgage-free rate rests at a mere 27%, far below the national average. Several factors explain Denver's high mortgage rates: Since 2010, the trend towards mortgage independence has increased by 8%, while the percentage of financed homes has decreased by roughly 7%. In Denver, just as across much of the country, younger buyers are grappling with staggering home prices, mounting student debt, and elevated interest rates, making entry into the housing market increasingly daunting. At the same time, 78% of older homeowners indicate they plan to "age in place," disrupting traditional homebuying and selling pathways, reducing inventory, and intensifying competition for first-time buyers. Many older homeowners who leveraged ultra-low…...

2+ week, 6+ day ago (363+ words) The Denver Police Department on Monday released body-worn camera videos of two recent shootings involving the agency's officers " including one in which police"killed a robbery suspect at a gas station last month " but the footage didn't shed new information on what happened during the incidents. The shooting at the Maverik convenience store, in the 3200 block of South Parker Road, occurred after the suspect locked himself inside with two employees. The police department previously said two of the gas station's employees were shot. One of the six Denver officers to respond to the robbery was also shot in his leg, which required surgery. The second shooting took place on Nov. 2 near the 5100 block of North Biscay Court. Police said at least three people were shot at a house party. The video footage showed police chasing the suspect through a neighborhood…...

3+ week, 3+ day ago (578+ words) Liberals attempting to form a majority on the Aurora City Council have endured several election cycles of despair. But that all changed in the blink of an eye Tuesday night when five progressive candidates " and zero conservatives " appeared headed to victory. "It was simply shock," Gianina Horton, one of four new faces coming to the council on Dec. 1, told The Denver Post on Wednesday. With progressive incumbent Alison Coombs not in contention Tuesday, the five victors, including another incumbent, will increase the council's left-leaning representation to six on the 11-member body if the results hold. Some ballots remained outstanding Wednesday evening. Mayor Mike Coffman, a Republican former member of Congress, said the power shift at the ballot box largely reflected what happened in 2017, the year after Donald Trump " now early in his second term " won his first presidential election. "The…...

3+ week, 1+ day ago (961+ words) The morning after Election Day, Denver Mayor Mike Johnston and members of his team stepped into the sun at Civic Center Park and smiled. Doughnuts and coffees in hand, some of them joked about seeing each other look happy for the first time in weeks. "It's a huge relief," Johnston said with a laugh after being asked about voters emphatically approving the Vibrant Denver bond the night before. "And it's a tremendous jolt of excitement." From his ongoing squabbles with the City Council to recent public perceptions of a lack of transparency, the mayor's trademark move-now, ask-questions-later approach has continued to deliver mixed results. But Johnston sees this most recent success as a stamp of approval for that method. "I think this shows us there's real support and belief in the direction we're heading," Johnston said shortly after declaring victory…...

3+ week, 5+ hour ago (1714+ words) Big Tech's self-driving vehicles " a fleet of white Jaguars and powder-blue Zeekrs topped with rotating black cameras and radar " have been rolling around Denver for two months, ingesting data into their artificial-intelligence computers ahead of public activation next year. The Waymo expansion here, part of a push into as many as a dozen cities, for which the California-based company secured $5.6 billion from investors, accelerates the spread of machine-learning technology and may help robotaxis overcome a technical problem: navigating thick, sensor-obscuring snow. Behind the scenes, ethicists and engineers are questioning what they see as a precedent for whether humans keep control. "I want to see autonomous vehicles be used to help people be more liberated," Colorado School of Mines robotics engineer Frankie Zhu said last month in a lab where she's honing vehicle navigation systems for NASA. "I agree with the…...
