Mayberry - 6/23/2012
I read some of the comments on this site referring to Edgewater as "Mayberry" and as someone who grew up there, it was in the 70's. My uncle was the town barber (Bert) and my dad was one of the Lts. in the Fire Department. Since everyone knew everyone, when I started driving I was less concerned about getting a ticket from the Edgewater police and more concerned about what they would tell my dad! Now it is the barrio and my mom and dad really hate having to clean off grafitti from their garage. I guess that happens when undesireables move in or

Edgewater is an "urban city"???? - 5/13/2010
Edgewater is an "urban city"?....... What?.... Edgewater is a small little bedroom community that no one has ever heard of because its a only a few blocks and confused with Wheatridge. I don't what you consider crime, but there isn't any real crime in Edgewater, except for maybe the occasional domestic between a husband and wife who forgot to water their garden. ...... Frequent gunshots?, I cant remember that last time there's been a shooting in Edgewater, I would say gunshots are unheard of, rather than frequent. maybe your confusing firecrackers with gunshots. The sirens you hear are the ambulance from other cities traveling down Sheridan going to St Anthony's hospital or maybe you hear Denver police, fire or paramedics going down Sheridan, but it definitely isn't related to Edgewater. The occasional graffiti that pops up in Edgewater, looks like it came from a 10 year old trying to imitate what he saw on Gangland (or internet). If you think Edgewater has gang problem, your sadly

Re: Edgeater - 5/11/2010
I'll give you one thing Joey, you are trying hard. Also you are right about one thing, I do live in white suburbia, I live in Edgewater. Interesting, but desperate attempt at spanglish, keep practicing. I especially like the part where you name your little friends and then incriminate them.Let me give a quick geography lesson. Edgewater is NOT a neighborhood, it is its own city in Jefferson County. This is why Edgewater has their own police dept, fire dept and their own mayor. How come Villa Park, Barnum, or Westwood don't have their own police dept's, fire dept's or mayors, that is because they are a neighborhood within a city. No matter how much you try or wish, Edgewood is a neighborhood in lakeWOOD's Northeast EDGE. By the way the "projects at 18th and Kendall" are actually privately owned condos located outside Edgewater's border in the City of Lakewood. Educate yourself on what Housing Projects actually are. Sure I'm familiar with the Gallant Knights Insane or Gangstas killin

Real Edgewater - 5/11/2010
Wow ! that's an interesting posting. I am very familiar with Edgewater and I researched almost everything you've said and almost everything you said is completely FALSE. For example ...... your reference to the crime statistics are completely untrue and misleading, I see where your going by trying to imagine IF Edgewater was a 100,000 person city and multiplying everything. Even with that bizarre way of looking at it, you are still wrong ! Why don't you just say it for what it is. For example Edgewater reported the following to CBI (Colorado Bureau of Investigations) in 2008. 482 total incidents, 0 murders , 0 Sex Assaults, 5 robberies, 43 Assaults( only 6 by hands or feet and 0 with gun or knife), 29 Burglaries, 31 vehicle thefts and 252 thefts. this isn't even close to what you claim of "6,704 incidents, 18.8 murders, 188.3 robberies, 263.7 assaults, 508.5 burglaries, 4,821 thefts, 885.1 vehicle thefts".
Also you mention Edgewood and say it is part of Edgewater, when in fact

Edgewater - 1/29/2010
Edgewater is a very small suburb west of Denver. I think its only a square mile. Its an oasis, a clean and safe little town, It's like Mayberry here, it has a little tiny Mayberry library and it's own little Mayberry police station where the policeman sits in a rocking chair out front.It's one the places where you don't have to lock your front door. It's full of beautiful little homes with beautiful yards. the town sits on the edge of Sloans Lake (where I imagine its name comes from) I love living here, it's a clean and quiet. I moved here from California, I've lived here for the last 10 years and I have had zero problems. I wouldn't live anywhere else. I think it is the perfect place to raise your children. Big city crime is almost non existent, the people are super friendly, and my family feels very safe
