About Denver

663,862 in city
3,110,436 in metro
400 km² (154 mi²)
1609.36356986 m
Denver is the largest metro area in a 600 mile radius. The Mile-High City has the largest city park system in the U.S., with enough acres of park to cover Manhattan. Its 300 days of sunshine a year make it sunnier than San Diego or Miami Beach. The Denver International Airport (DIA) is the largest in the country --larger in size than both the Dallas-Fort Worth and O'Hare airports combined. More than 350,000 people have moved to the area in the past five years making Metropolitan Denver one of the fastest growing regions in the U.S. Denver also has a solid reputation as a sports town where virtually every professional team plays to sell-out crowds.
