Hey guys, my wife and I are moving to Denver in a little under three weeks and are trying to figure out where to live.  We're in a difficult situation in that we've only been to the area a few times and aren't very familiar with it, and most likely won't have a chance to fly out to actually find a place in person.  So...we turn to the intertubes for advice.

 

We're looking to rent a 2 bedroom apartment or townhouse, hopefully in the range of $1000/month although we're flexible.  She'll be working in Englewood so ideally we want to keep it to less than a 30 minute commute.  Most importantly, we're looking for a safe, quiet, family-friendly area, which is the most difficult thing to gauge without actually being able to go to a place and check it out in person.  Being able to go out at night is a nice touch, but we're more interested in living somewhere homey than hip and trendy.

 

So, any pro-tips on where we should be looking?  Any advice, suggestions, help, etc is welcomed!  Thanks!
