Moving into a new apartment can be exciting and complicated, as there are many factors to consider. From exploring the new neighborhood to helping your family adjust to the change, successfully starting a new life in an apartment in Denver requires a little finesse. 

Before moving, here are some topics to consider:

• Neighborhood Economics: The economics of a potential new neighborhood include both the cost of living there and the value of the homes there. It’s a good idea to evaluate your budget and whether the stores and facilities in the neighborhood will match your lifestyle and how much you want to spend. If you’re considering buying an apartment, look into the past, current, and predicted value of homes in the area so you can evaluate whether or not it’s a smart neighborhood to invest in.  
• Neighborhood Safety: One of the other most important factors that can affect your happiness in a neighborhood (particularly in an urban setting) is whether or not you will be safe living there. Checking with a local police station or neighborhood organization and looking up crime rates online will help you make an informed decision.
• How Moving Affects Your Family: If you aren’t moving alone, it’s a good idea to spend some time evaluating how the transition will affect your family. If you have children, find out how they feel about the move and whether the neighborhood has a strong school system. If you are moving with other adults, get their input on the move and location, and consider how this might affect their commute to work.
