I disagree. There are many such neighborhoods, depending of course on your defiition of affordable (I agree that the best neighborhoods are becoming less affordable every year, which is a shame). That said, Even Washington Park, with its high values, still will have bungalows for the OP in the 400k-500k range. While that is arguably "unaffordable", it is within the range of the OP. Many of the surrounding 'hoods around Wash Park are more affordable in terms of real estate and there are a dozen other schools in DPS that are the equal or "better" than Steele.

We moved from Applewood, just outside of Golden, and miss it terribly- great schools, easy commute to denver and mountains etc. etc. etc...
