What it’s like to live in Briargate
Air Force Academy employees discover ideal housing in Briargate, where well-maintained rental communities sit minutes from base without the institutional feel of military housing. The neighborhood's elevated position provides cooler summer temperatures than downtown, with many properties featuring Pikes Peak views that would command premium pricing in tourism-focused districts. Though rental rates exceed city averages, the elimination of cross-city commuting time creates value beyond basic housing considerations for personnel with limited free time between demanding Academy positions.
