Review of Edgewater, Colorado


Mayberry of Colorado
Star Rating - 1/24/2010
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 here.

Go to the Edgewater Police Department page, and it will tell you all the crime in Edgewater CO. Or go to areaconnect.com. Edgewater has its crime. trust me and go to these websites and check it out. Yes, something will probably never happen to you, but it is not fair to say that big city crime doesnt happen there. For a neighborhood of only about 5,000 people, it has crime. more than any other 5,000 people places has. and the schools are crap. go to jeffcopublicschools.org and check out jefferson high school. its a bad school. and check all the graffitti in the neighborhood. i respectfully disagree with the MAYBERRY of denver. and the edgewater police arent the only people patrolling the neighbrhood. the denver PD and lakewood PD also patroll the neighborhood. th schools are 80% latino (mostly mexican american) and they have there fair share of sets/gangs. ask the kids that go to the schools.

Also, please go an entire week without locking your car door or front door. Trust me, just trust me. last year in edgewater there were 50 motor vehicle thefts. for a neighborhood of only 5,000 people, thats quite a lot
