Glendale, Colorado
The City of Glendale is a home rule municipality located in an exclave of Arapahoe County, Colorado, United States. The city population was 4,613 at the 2020 United States census. Glendale is an enclave of the City and County of Denver and is the most densely populated municipality in Colorado. The city is a part of the Denver-Aurora-Centennial, CO Metropolitan Statistical Area and the Front Range Urban Corridor.
Glendale's fire and medical services have been provided by the Denver Fire Department and Denver Paramedics through a contract with the City and County of Denver since 2005. Glendale is policed by the Glendale Police Department.
In 1859, the Cherokee Trail (and the Smoky Hill Trail -south branch) came down Cherry Creek Valley past the Four Mile House and through what is now called Glendale. The Four Mile House was one of the stage stops along the road, becoming a way station for freight wagons and a stock ranch.
The first documented use of the name Glendale was the Glendale Grange, which was organized in December 1896. J.M. and Agnes Riddle helped to found and donated land for a new Grange Hall that was completed in 1897. In 1902, William Harold Baumert named his dairy the Glendale Farm Dairy which solidified the term Glendale which is now used to describe the community.
A fossil was found in 1937 in the sands of the bed of Cherry Creek—the first evidence of prehistoric animals. Later that year, an upper molar of a mammoth was found and donated to Denver's Museum of Natural History.
The original filing for incorporation of the Town of Glendale was incorporated January 8, 1952. The first Organizational Meeting of the Trustees of the Town of Glendale was held May 20, 1952. The citizens of the Glendale community wanted their voices to be heard fearing annexation from their large neighbor Denver and the loss of independence.
At the 2020 United States census, the city had a total area of 365 acres (1.478 km2) including 1.5 acres (0.006 km2) of water. Much of the city's limited space is devoted to commercial development, including both office and residential high rises.
As of the 2020 census, Glendale had a population of 4,613. The median age was 30.2 years. 9.6% of residents were under the age of 18 and 4.3% of residents were 65 years of age or older. For every 100 females there were 102.8 males, and for every 100 females age 18 and over there were 102.5 males age 18 and over.
