Why I chose Cherry Creek over bigger cities

Longtime lurker here, Household incomes average around $147,618 in Cherry Creek. The median home value here is around $856,800, which is pretty steep. It's a a small town city with about 11,011 people. Poverty rate is 3.7%, which is pretty low. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

Pros:
- Great weather
- Lots of new development
- Active local events

Cons:
- Sprawl everywhere
- Boring for young people
- Poor road conditions
- Far from major airports
