About Parker CO
You are in: Parker Real Estate > About Parker
Parker in the last twenty years, has undergone a
transformation from a quiet
rural town to one of the faster growing suburban areas in the Denver
Metro
Area. So while Main Street in Parker retains much of that old-town
charm, surrounding neighborhoods are newly developing and becoming home
to many commuters. Parker is an easy commute
to the Denver Tech Center, Inverness and Meridian Office Park, and
downtown Denver.
As Parker continues to develop, many new businesses are going up within the
community itself. There are several recreation centers, two golf courses, and miles of walking and biking trails.
