Learn moreThe lowest housing cost in this batch, with a confidence caveat
Northglenn's median sale price was cited at $440,000, down 14.6% year over year -- the underlying data appears to synthesize to roughly November 2025, meaningfully staler than the mid-2026 figures cited for Littleton and Englewood, and the YoY swing is notably larger than either of those markets. Regardless of the exact current number, $440K reads as the clear low end of this three-market batch.
Household income: the lowest of the batch, with a disclosed range
Median household income is cited in a $79,530-$84,030 range depending on source -- the lowest figures found across this three-market batch (Littleton $98,839-$110,339; Englewood $86,800).
Colorado's flat income tax and Northglenn's own combined sales-tax rate
Colorado levies a flat 4.40% state income tax for 2026 (TABOR-adjustable). Northglenn's combined sales tax rate is cited at 8.75% (2.90% state + 5.85% local, itself 0.75% county + 4.00% city + 1.10% special district) -- coincidentally the same headline combined rate cited for Littleton, though built from a different county/city/special-district mix.
