Chambers Heights
By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026
Chambers Heights is one of Aurora's older postwar subdivisions, about 513 acres between 6th Avenue and Colfax Avenue from I-225 east to Chambers Road. Seven of its ten plat filings were recorded between 1957 and 1966, with the last in 1980, so the single-family stock is almost entirely late-1950s and 1960s construction on modest lots. Elkhart Elementary and East Middle School sit inside the neighborhood and Hinkley High School holds the Chambers Road edge, all Aurora Public Schools, while Freedom Park lies just across I-225 on Sable Boulevard. The R Line's 13th Avenue Station at 14110 East 13th Avenue is at the western edge, Colfax buses run along the north side, and 6th Avenue leads east to the gates of Buckley Space Force Base in a few minutes.
