Resident Population Data
Denver ranks about 21st in a recent list of Metropolitan Statistical Areas. What’s interesting however, is Colorado with just over 5 million residents has less population than the top 9 statistical areas.
Denver residents enjoy all the benefits of a top statistical area, but the low density of the surrounding state of Colorado, and the surrounding low density states of Wyoming, New Mexico, Utah, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Arizona and Nebraska.
As you an see from the links above, Colorado’s growth slowed significantly during the last decade, but it has not stopped and will continue. Guess what, there is a plan for that growth. DRCOG has a vision plan for 2035.
