I've always been a fan of Zillow, but those numbers are rather seriously off base.
Not only is Bow Mar not in Denver (it's in Littleton), but Country Club, Hilltop, and Belcare don't even crack your Top 43.
Here are numbers from the Assessor's database of average home values:
CNTRY CL $678,142.04
HILLTOP $610,922.90
BELCARO $587,961.74
CHERY CR $522,741.86
WASH PK $424,622.04
WELLSHIR $387,036.28
SO PK HL $387,002.20
CITY PK $359,682.77
CHSMN PK $355,168.01
CONGR PK $344,283.87
HALE $342,005.55
CORY MER $321,726.69
WAS PK W $299,188.20
STHMR PK $283,989.33
WA VI VA $282,271.70
VIRG VIL $277,364.20

Looks like Zillow may have to go back to the drawing board on these valuations...
Goes to show that Seattle may not be the best source of data. But, more is always better. Thanks for the added info.

Fun stuff!
I don't trust Zillow for property values either, but as an investor it's the best way to get a rough idea of values. Just a place to start from...
