Montbello

Montbello is a neighborhood in the northeastern section City and County of Denver, Colorado. Montbello is one of Denver’s largest neighborhoods, with over 9,000 housing units, and over 30,000 residents. The Italian word “Montbello” means literally “beautiful mountain.” Spectacular views of Mount Evans, Long’s Peak, and the Continental Divide inspired developers to name Denver’s new neighborhood area after the picturesque mountain region in the Italian Alps with the same name. Montbello was the first major annexation of privately owned land to the far northeast area of Denver, taking place in September 1965. Because the area annexed was large – approximately 2,609 acres – the city and developers worked out a master land-use plan that addressed mutual obligations in the annexation area.

The annexation agreement included plans for the area to develop into a mixed-use community. The agreement dictated the general land use and densities and provided for the necessary public land sites for parks, schools, and other public facilities. Montbello started developing in 1966, with the bulk of growth taking place in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Montbello began as a suburban-style development by real estate developer Jordon Perlmutter, the first major annexation of privately owned land to the far northeast area of Denver, taking place in September 1965. The annexation included almost 3,000 acres of land and plans for the area to develop into a mixed-use community and dictated the general land use and densities and provided for the necessary public land sites for parks, schools, and other public facilities. Developers built a large variety of homes, ranging from small soap-box ranches to large multi-level family homes. During the boom of the late 1990s and early 2000s, real estate prices in this ZIP code were high and in sync with the rest of metro Denver. There are several schools in the neighborhood, including Montbello High School, which opened in 1980. Schools in this area have struggled in the past with performance, but community members and the school district are working together to address these issues. There are six elementary schools, one k-8, and a middle school. Environmental Bed Bug Exterminator Denver, Inc
