North Boulder stretches along the upper end of Broadway, pairing everyday convenience with foothill drama. Minutes from downtown Boulder, residents find calm streets, pocket parks, and a creative pulse anchored by the NoBo Art District, where studios, galleries, and First Friday walks turn the neighborhood into an open-air showcase.
Weekends flow easily outdoors. The Wonderland Lake Trailhead connects to mellow loops and raptor outlooks; kids burn energy at Foothills Community Park, and lap swimmers head to the North Boulder Recreation Center with its pools, gym, and classes. Trail runners link neighborhood paths to the Open Space network, while cyclists roll north toward scenic farm roads.
Schools are a draw: Crest View Elementary School anchors the area, and Boulder High School offers IB coursework, strong arts, and competitive athletics. Daily needs are close—independent cafes, bakeries, and markets cluster along Broadway—while larger errands are an easy hop across Boulder County. Commutes stay simple via the SKIP bus and well-marked bike corridors.
Housing spans mid-century ranches, updated townhomes, and custom builds near trailheads, giving first-time buyers and move-up households genuine choice. Considering a move?
