Gleneagle

Gleneagle is one of my favorite areas of Colorado. The homes here are all individual looking and the yards are all well tended and nice. There are incredible views of the mountains just west of the highway and some pretty amazing sunsets to boot. We have friends who live here and whenever we go down for a BBQ they have neighbors over as it seems to be a pretty tight knit community. Although there isn't a lot of options here for shopping and dining, Gleneagle is so close to Colorado Springs that residents can get whatever they need without a far drive, yet live in a quiet beautiful area without the hustle and bustle of the bigger city.

There is an 18 hole golf course located here which has some pretty incredible views and is a gorgeous course, which is open to the public. It fits in perfectly with the incredible scenery it has for a backdrop.

The median household income in Gleneagle is $109,208 which is almost double that of the rest of Colorado. However, home prices here are high as well, coming in around $355,000 for a median priced home. The majority of the residents here work in professional, scientific, and technical services followed by educational services. This is definitely a family oriented area as almost 80% of the households are families. The current population is 6,611 with the majority of the residents (over 89.7%) being white, followed by Hispanic and then Asian.

For families who can afford a little more expensive home, I would highly recommend Gleneagle. The family oriented atmosphere, along with great schools and surrounding beauty make this community a great place to live.
