Edgewater Housing and Transportation Questionnaire
The City of Edgewater is working with the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) to develop a Housing and Transportation Study. We want to make sure people can find homes they can afford, close to jobs, schools, and daily needs. The following survey will help guide next steps for the study.
