Montbello is a neighborhood in Denver, Colorado, appearing on a map as a northeast appendage of the city. The neighborhood lies north of I-70 and was isolated from the rest of the city by Stapleton International Airport, now under redevelopment. After Denver’s annexation of the Denver International Airport site even farther northeast, the neighborhood has occupied a more “central” location in the city. Nonetheless, Montbello has a marginal image among Denver neighborhoods, and is often referred to locally as “the ghetto”. The neighborhood is known to be dominated by the notorious Bloods street gang and the Crips gang is active around Montbello as well, making this area among the most dangerous in the city due to gang violence.
