-With it's high population of 600,000 people, Denver ranked twenty fourth among most populous cities in the United States. (Census.gov) People are moving to Colorado from areas like California for job opportunities, lower rent,overpopulation, and change in weather. The city is made up of 80 "neighborhoods" and contains a lot of architecture that was built after WWII, but the suburbs went with the new style of buildings.
This station used to be a very popular in the late 1800's, but now it used for Amtrak purposes on a very low scale.
-The early settlers of Denver were American Indian of Cheyenne, Lakota, Kiowa, Navajo descent from census data and their numbers are on the rise.
-From 1990 to 2000, the population increased by about 50,000 people according to the census bureau.
-As stated in the book, Denver was ranked 21st in terms of metropolitan population rank. If you are a young person looking for a job, Denver is the place to go because the job market is booming and the income is higher than the national average.
-Having such a diverse group of people, not one single cultural influence can be established. To check out all of the different types of cultures, there are a couple museums that were created because of the cities desire to make downtown Denver beautiful. Some museums include the Museo de las Americas and the Black American West Museum and Heritage Center. If museums are not your thing, Denver supposedly has one of the nation's largest events for different cultures that include Cinco De Mayo, the Cherry Blossom Festival and the Denver Pow Wow that can be found on the city website.
