Answer:

Higher

Step-by-step explanation:

This occurs because there tends to be greater demand for housing in Denver, but home owners supply of houses would be minimal, thereby reducing the availablity of homes.

This creates a situation where the law of demand and supply applies, thus leading to an even greater cost of housing above the price ceiling.
