Learn moreA genuinely wide cross-source spread, and higher than the other two Colorado suburbs in this batch
One source cited the average apartment rent at $2,043; a second cited $2,063 (up 2.17% year-over-year); a third, notably higher figure cited $2,897 -- a real, wide spread disclosed rather than averaged. By unit size, one source cited $1,934 for a 1-bedroom and $2,550 for a 2-bedroom. Even the low end of this range runs above the rent figures documented for both Arvada and Westminster elsewhere in this dataset.
A real, disclosed year-over-year increase, unlike the softening seen in Arvada and parts of Westminster
One source cites Centennial rent up 2.17% year-over-year -- a real, disclosed contrast with the year-over-year rent declines documented for Arvada and at least some Westminster readings, worth surfacing directly rather than assuming a uniform metro-wide rental trend.
Renting offers a lower-commitment way to access Centennial's higher-income area without the full purchase price
Renting avoids the genuinely high $600K-$641K purchase-price band while still providing access to Centennial's real corporate-employer proximity (Arrow Electronics, United Launch Alliance) and light rail access.
