September 15, 2015 By Rick Cavallaro, Rhino Realty Pros 1 Comment

    One of the things I like about Thornton, CO, is the atmosphere is magnificent. Throughout the parks around town, you’ll find kids and families enjoying the Colorado sunshine. Also, one of the oldest neighborhoods in Thornton is Eastlake. Overall, I think that it’s a great, family-friendly neighborhood located less than thirty minutes north of Denver—a good suburb to live in.
