Glendale, CO, only 384 acres and a population of 4,512 with some average corporate mid-rises, non descript apartment communities, and some recently constructed residential mid/high rises that pretty much looks like another part of Denver. It's just another stretch of blocks along Colorado Blvd (one of Denver's biggest traffic clusterf***s) Why Glendale is independent of Denver, I have no idea. Probably a lower tax scheme for development I suppose as its a part of Arapahoe County separate from Denver city/county.
^^Sorry, I didn't notice you had already mentioned Glendale. I really don't know much about it. As the Wiki article says, it once was a popular entertainment center in metro Denver, even into the 80s when we moved to CO. I don't know how it came to be surrounded by Denver. I know Denver went through an annexing phase before The Poundstone Amendment made it much harder for them to annex land in other counties.
