About Centennial, Colorado

Centennial, Colorado is slightly southeast of Denver. It is nearly 6,000 feet in elevation and a newer city with a recent incorporation date of 2001. The City of Centennial tracks resident satisfaction and a 2016 study showed 90% of residents voted it a great place to live. Is it? Let’s explore!

Home Options in Centennial

Homes in Centennial have been built with the discerning homebuyer in mind. Although a handful of units with one bedroom are available, the majority of homes have 2-5 bedrooms. Many homes feature spacious floor plans, large yards, and multi car garages, and are situated in highly desirable neighborhoods.

In those neighborhoods, Centennial homeowners will find that upwards of 80% of their neighbors are also homeowners. More than 55% of residents have college degrees, and the median average income is in the low six figures.

A six figure salary may secure your dream home purchase in Centennial, as the mid-2022 median price hovers between $650-700k. In a $700,000 home with a decent down payment and a lender that shops for a competitive loan product, homeowners can expect a monthly payment around the $3,000 mark (depending on credit score, interest rate, etc.).

Renters in Centennial also have options, and with these options comes smaller unit sizes - even studio apartments! Apartment complexes feature many amenities and may be a great stepping stone deciding where you buy a home in Centennial.
