A Growing Real Estate Market with Affordable Options

Commerce City, Colorado, has its roots in agriculture and industry, beginning as a small farming community in the mid-19th century. Originally called Derby, the area grew with the arrival of the railroad in the late 1800s, which brought new opportunities for trade and development. By the 20th century, the area had become a hub for industry, with refineries and factories driving its economic growth.

In 1952, the community officially incorporated as Commerce City to reflect its industrial strength and growing population. Over the years, the city diversified its economy and expanded its residential neighborhoods to accommodate a growing workforce.

Today, Commerce City is a thriving suburb known for its family-friendly atmosphere, proximity to Denver, and access to outdoor recreation, including the Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge. Its evolution from a farming and industrial hub to a vibrant residential community showcases its dynamic history and promising future.
