Mile High Economy:

Denver's job growth has increased by an average of 2.2 percent ending 8/06. Because Denver is the largest city within 600 miles, it has become a natural location for storage and distribution of goods and services to the Mountain States. Denver is also approximately halfway between the large cities of the Midwest, like Chicago and Detroit and the cities of the West Coast, another benefit for distribution. The Denver-Aurora Metropolitan Area has more federal workers than any other metropolitan area except for the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Along with the plethora of federal agencies come many companies based on US defense and space projects. Energy and mining are still important in Denver's economy today, with companies such as EnCana, Halliburton, Newmont Mining, Noble Energy, and Anadarko. Denver's location on the 105th meridian at over 1 mile in elevation also enables it to be the largest city in the U.S. to offer a 'one-bounce' real-time satellite uplink to six continents in the same business day. Qwest Communications, EchoStar, Starz-Encore, and Comcast are just a few of the telecommunications companies with operations in the Denver area. Denver International Airport serves as the primary airport for the Denver-Aurora Metropolitan area. It is the tenth busiest airport in the world and ranks fifth in the United States, with 47,324,844 passengers passing through it in 2006. It covers more than 53 square miles, making it the largest airport in the United States by land area. Denver serves as a major hub for United Airlines and the headquarters for Frontier Airlines. Denver has sports teams in four major leagues. Just west of downtown is new, 76,000-seat Invesco Field at Mile High, home of the NFL's Denver Broncos and soccer's Colorado Rapids. The stadium also houses the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame. In Denver's Lower Downtown, 50,000-seat Coors Field hosts baseball's Colorado Rockies. Just outside is the 18,000-seat Pepsi Center, where the NBA's Nuggets and the NHL's Avalanche play their home games.

Denver has a very active pop, jazz, jam, folk, and classical music scene, which has nurtured several artists and genres to regional, national, and even international attention. For recreation, the Colorado area more than makes up for what it lacks in ocean with its majestic mountains and world-class skiing.
