According to the City of Aurora’s website, its delegation delivered a compelling presentation, encompassing the redevelopment of the Fitzsimons Life Science District, its Immigrant Integration Project and the COMPASS-Coalition of Many Providing After School Success (an after school program). According to the National Civic League, the All-America City Award distinguishes communities for collaboration, inclusiveness, and successful innovation. All-America Cities demonstrate community-wide civic accomplishments, cross-sector cooperation, grassroots participation, and creative approaches to issues.”
And, Aurora’s good fortunes just keep coming. According to a recent column in by Al Lewis of The Denver Post, Aurora was ranked second in a new Salary.com survey that compared salaries and living costs in 69 cities. Colorado Springs and Denver were ranked 11 and 22, respectively. Aurora landed at the top of the list because of its affordability and plethora of high-paying jobs in the medical and engineering fields, including those at the thriving Anschutz Medical Center.
