Your response: My community is located near a creek, with easy access to/from my neighborhood. It is important to us to keep it clean and safe for everyone near that creek and trail that runs by it. I would also like to say that it appears my community used to be more affordable housing-wise, which has lead to its nice diversity. Nowadays the only people moving in are richer white people, it seems.

Examples of needs or concerns: Keep community in the same district or separate into multiple districts, shared policy concerns, need for a social service, relationship to other nearby communities, issues with current district lines

Your response: My community has a significant amount of apartments/multi-family homes nearby, but this seems to be mostly in Glendale, rather than Denver. [It makes no sense to me that a separate city exists within my city (Denver.) We should all be one.] In any case, I have noticed that the frequently-used bus stops near these apartments lack seating/shade. It is obviously also important right now that we all keep each other safe from transmitting COVID. I am glad I live in Denver where the mandates about masking are progressive. It has become apparent that when left to their own devices individuals act for themselves, not for the good of the community, which is where government needs to step in.
