Context
The east metro is the metro's largest submarket on absolute inventory volume, almost entirely driven by Aurora. Buyers should evaluate based on commute corridor, school assignment, and which sub-area of Aurora or Commerce City fits the brief, since the submarket spans an unusually wide tier and posture range.
