CA Mom: Most homes here have basements, at least that's my observation by using realtor.com
LFarber: Your price range is very low for Denver proper. Use
www.realtor.com to scope out prices.

Newbies...welcome to city-data, lots of good data here, already, in the forums. Use the Search function.
Pictures of most cities are found at
www.city-data.com and drilling down into the state and city of choice.
One thing we seek to avoid on this site is the repeating the same info over & over....believe me, virtually everyone wants to know where are the parts of any town to avoid... where are the good schools.... where are houses cheap.... where is it walkable to the things you need.... etc...Newbies can help themselves get much better info, immediately, by using Search.
If SEARCH doesn't bring back postings that answer your interest, then by all means, ask all the questions you wish.
NOTE….Search is very specific....if you put in
schools it will find every case of
schools, but will NOT find the singular,
school. It won't find word segments either, you can put in
camp, and it will find
camp, but it won't find the word
camping.
Try the search engine with keywords like hike, hiking, camp, camping, skiing, snow, sports, museums, arts, food, restaurants, cuisine, winter, marketing, jobs, rail, train, pizza, chinese, italian, dogs, pets, commute, commuting, school, schools, education, teaching, Douglas, Arapahoe, and the names of specific towns or areas.... etc....
