About Aurora
Aurora real estate at a glance
Aurora sits on the east side of the Denver metro and covers a large area that stretches across parts of Arapahoe, Adams and Douglas counties. Because of that size, a home search here can mean very different things depending on the part of the city: older neighborhoods near Colfax and Fitzsimons, established suburban streets in the middle of the city, and newer subdivisions toward the edges.
Major employers and institutions shape demand. The Anschutz Medical Campus and Buckley Space Force Base bring steady commuting and relocation activity, and the I-225 corridor and E-470 make it practical to reach Denver, Denver International Airport and the Denver Tech Center.
Which county a property sits in affects property taxes, services and some rules, so Jeffrey checks that early and builds a neighborhood-level picture using recent comparable sales instead of citywide averages.

Aurora is one of the more approachable large markets in the metro. Redfin shows a median sale price near $447,000, down about 3.9% from a year earlier, with homes typically selling in about five weeks. That sits well below Denver's median near $597,000 and Centennial's near $640,000. Because Aurora covers so much ground, prices in the newer southeast subdivisions can look very different from older streets near Colfax.
