Centennial is in the southern part of the Denver Metro area, running
from Broadway on the west to the E-470 toll highway on the east. Only a

Centennial is a vibrant, new community right outside of Denver. Only a city since 2001, Centennial was incorporated from portions of unincorporated Arapahoe County. It is now the seventh largest city in the Denver Metro area with around 100,000 residents. Outside Centennial's homey neighborhoods are countless parks, including Cherry Creek State Park, with an 880-acre lake and twelve miles of hiking trails. You'll also find golf courses, a newly built recreation center, and shopping and dining options.
Park
Meadows Mall is only a short drive away, but the Streets at Southglenn
is a brand new neighborhood shopping destination. The
Streets at Southglenn offers an outdoor park, upscale retailers,
and restaurants in a relaxed, outdoor atmosphere.
Because of Centennial's
proximity to the Denver
Tech Center and also the technical growth and new businesses within
Centennial, it has
become a rewarding place to work and live.
About three-fourths of the homes in Centennial are single family residents, the rest condos or townhouses.
