Located in Arapahoe County, Glendale's 355 acres are completely surrounded by the City and County of Denver. This is a high-density community, with nearly 100 percent of the population in multi-family housing (there are only three single-family residences in the City). About 90 percent of residents are renters occupying the city's more than 2,000 apartments. The remaining residents own the 300-plus condominium and townhouse units in the City. Glendale is the kind of community where it's easy to get to know your neighbors. |
