Colorado’s “roughest city” is Aurora? The local news media blurred everything out in the video and shrunk the size. Had they not done so, I wouldn’t be posting the tabloid-quality news for this story.

DIA is only letting TSA pre check passengers through security?? At the very front of the regular boarding line and they haven’t let a single person through for 30 mins. People are missing flights because they won’t let regular ticketed passengers through. People freaking out. Get it together 🤣

Help State vs. City traffic law?

6 Upvotes

Adjacent to Denver lies the City of Cherry Hills Village. The Village has recently posted “educational” material claiming that ebikes are banned from all Village trails (and the portion of the Highline that is within the Village). Upon questioning, the Mayor asserts that this is not new, that ebikes have always been banned, pointing to the municipal code 11-3-80 passed in 2003.
However, reading that text, it uses the term "motor vehicle".

The State defines motor vehicle in a way that specifically excludes ebikes C.R.S. § 42-1-102. Given that was passed in 2017... can one argue that IF the Village chooses to exercise its jurisdiction to ban them, it has to pass a new / revise the existing statute?

The Village is a “home rule city” so, per CRS 42-1-102 it certainly has the authority to ban ebikes on trails under its jurisdiction but can it do so by interpretation rather than legislation? And is it really the case that each section of the Highline has different rules, purely at the whim of the various cities?

Misc Q&A Aviation buffs - anyone know why a whole 777 just flew super low over near-East Denver?

26 Upvotes

NOT near the airport before some of you smartasses pipe up. I'm at 17th & Colorado and it was so low and close I could see every detail. Even more weird, I tried to FlightRadar it and it says "private owner"--private jets fly over me all the time and this was a HUGE passenger jet.

It was headed south, and I thought for a moment it was going to try an emergency landing at Centennial (obviously too big but I was on a 777 from NYC to Dublin once that landed at Bangor, Maine when a passenger had a heart attack so who knows) but FlightRadar is showing it turned around and landed at DIA? I'm not very good at FlightRadar so that's all I can decipher.

I've lived in Park Hill for 15 years and none of this seemed like normal airport traffic.

Misc Q&A Boba, sales tax, and tips

41 Upvotes

The other day I went out with a buddy to get some boba and I ended up getting a boba with a waffle via their kiosk. The price for the 2 items was around $11 and the sales tax bumped it to $12.63. Obligatorily I was asked for a tip, and I understand people have issues with the whole tipping thing and as it was a kiosk instead of a person, I decided I would just round up for the tip. I put $.37 as the tip and the final price shot up past $13 I believe to $13.56. I was surprised as this final price didn't detail out the item price and sales tax. I tried twice more to make the final price an even dollar amount and no matter what amount I input, the final price was always much higher than the tip amount. I ended up not leaving a tip as I did not like their whole calculations mishap. Has anybody else come across this and was my tip being given a sales tax as well? I've never come across this and wanted to know if this was normal or just a fluke of my understanding of how paying for some boba drink and a waffle via kiosk should be.

Hi friends!

I’m looking for a local and independent nail tech!! Obviously, they deserve to be well compensated for their time - but perchance someone who’s not going to break the bank? If feasible! For good nails, I’ll pay quite a bit.

I like gel x and loooove designs!! Someone who is local to the area is preferred and I don’t mind if they’re just getting started up in their practice either!!

Thank you for any help <3

Rant My desperate plea to Denver dog owners

546 Upvotes

I got a puppy a couple weeks ago. Teeny, tiny little thing. Of course, when she was being a crazy puppy, she broke her leg and is in a cast and cone now. Also just found that she came to me with a parasite so lots going on.

People are continuing to allow their dogs to run up to her every single day, some even going out of their way to encourage their dogs to go up to her. She is obviously crippled and is supposed to be engaged in low activity. She is also contagious.

Just this morning, I was standing in a rock patch with my dog in front of me, so she was between myself and a wall. A large dog suddenly rushed us from behind, and I automatically put my leg out to block it and said "woah!" The woman walking these two dogs dramatically scoffed at me and shook her head, glaring at me the entire time they walked away.

Something like this has literally been happening every single day. I am so beyond stressed out with everything going on and am begging you all to please not let your dogs go up to any unknown dog without direct permission.

I am not trying to be rude, I am not insinuating that you or your dogs are disgusting and don't deserve to be around us. I am trying to prevent any more multi-thousand dollar, painful accidents from happening to my dog and trying to prevent your dog from getting sick.

I am going to try my best to immediately pick my dog up any time a dog is walking by, but it's hard when she is literally in the middle of using the restroom and people allow their dogs to charge her. Please, please help us by being a bit more considerate. I love all of your dogs and find them adorable but I am so stressed out.

EDIT: I ONLY take her out to go potty. Literally that is all. That's the frustrating part because the slim amount of time her paws even touch the ground everything hits that fan. I live downtown and can only go to so many places. I try my best to go to the lowest traffic areas but people still sneak up on me sometimes. As I said, I will try my best to pick her up anytime we even see a dog, but the largest issue is them coming up right in the middle of her pottying. Under no circumstances have I taken her to a dog park.

Local News Denver's housing market not looking so good when you zoom out on the chart

91 Upvotes

From Zillow data here: Denver, CO Housing Market: 2026 Home Prices & Trends | Zillow

Zillow has most current Denver median list price of $533k. Compare that to the peak in 2022 on the chart of $610k - i.e., a 12.6% drop.

Moreover, if you compare housing appreciation from just before COVID in 2020 - that is, before the housing market got real crazy - you're looking at a compound annual property appreciation rate from 2020 to 2026 of only ~2.5% (Growth from property value in March 2020 of $457k to current 2026 property value of $533k, based on the chart above).

And, inventory is still roughly 50% above the highest peak in the last 10 years, as far back as data on the Denver listing market goes on the Fed website - meaning there is still more supply than demand and implying housing prices still have more downward pressure than upward: Housing Inventory: Active Listing Count in Denver-Aurora-Lakewood, CO (CBSA) (ACTLISCOU19740) | FRED | St. Louis Fed

Additionally, anecdotally, in my neighborhood, I've now seen 3 to 5 houses in the past couple months either list (and still have not sold), or actually sold for between 20% to 30% less than what they were actually purchased for during the 2021 to 2022 peak. On the other hand though there are a lucky few that - for whatever reasons - held out and still got premium prices in the 2022 range.

Just thought this was interesting, it's essentially taken 3 years since the most recent interest rate hike cycle began for gravity to take effect and start actually bringing Denver prices back towards traditional affordability levels, although still not quite there.

For affordability level, Denver median household prices is about $95k which - with a down payment of about 20%, at today's interest rates, and using bank loan debt/income ratio standard - would give an affordable housing price of about $470k. So, about 10% more drop to get back to traditional affordability metrics, if that ever happens.
