From 2019 to 2022, Denver raised the minimum wage from $11.10 per hour to $15.87 to “catch up” to the modern cost of living. Since then, the number has been adjusted each year based on a variant of the Consumer Price Index, a commonly used measure of inflation.

The city of Denver is raising its minimum wage starting Jan. 1, 2023. FOX31's Gabrielle Franklin spoke with experts about the impact of the change on workers.

Starting in January, minimum-wage workers across Colorado will see an increase in their paychecks. However, how much increase they get will depend on where they work.
