About Arvada Colorado

Located just northwest of Denver, Arvada is the site of one of the first gold discoveries in Colorado….a long RalstonOld Town Arvada, Colorado Creek in 1850. Since then, the city has experienced stable and steady residential and commercial growth. The Arvada Technical Center, along with 30 to 50 smaller firms, supports the existing industrial base. Still a little bit country, Arvada offers diversified housing ranging from apartments and small homes to farms and country estates.

Arvada has done an excellent job of balancing both business and cultural growth by redeveloping its downtown area, providing adequate and convenient shopping for its residents and by building a beautiful Center for the Performing Arts which preserves the flavor of the Old West.

Major employers in Arvada are COBE Cardiovascular, Mark VII Equipment, Inc., Denver Instrument Company, Sunstrand Fluid Handling, and Tarco, Inc.

Housing choices in Arvada are as diverse as the area itself. Affordable homes can be found near many of the open spaces preserved by the community for it’s residents.
