With about a million people moving to Colorado in the past decade alone, it’s easy to see why Denver and its respective metropolitan area has enjoyed such an impressive growth rate over the past few years.

Ever since the 1960s, Denver has grown on a steady basis, until it outgrew the entire population of the state of Wyoming in the year 2000. Since then, the Denver metropolitan area has reached a number of 2.5 million individuals, and that number continues to grow as more people are attracted by the improving housing conditions and the impressive work opportunities that this region has to offer.Denver is the largest city and one of the only cities that can be considered a true metropolis on a 600-mile radius. For the past 150 years, Denver was a cultural, financial and entertainment capital of the entire state of Colorado, and it certainly doesn’t seem to be losing its reputation today.

A few other important details about Denver’s demographics  has to do with the health and education of its population. 92% of Denver’s adult population has a high school diploma and at least 35% have a bachelor’s degree as well. Compared to the national average, these values are extremely high. Moreover, only about 20% of Denver’s adult population is overweight, compared to  almost half of the entire population of America, according to a recent federal report.
