For some reason this site reviewed our awesome town as "#1 worst place in Colorado to live for 2019". These people obviously haven't been here lately. Median home values have skyrocketed over the last 5 years. We have real growth happening in our community. Also, we are a simple 25 minute drive to access all of the fun Denver and Colorado has for many downtown art, sport, food and outdoor activities. We are still a 0 stoplight town, but we have growing diversity and community connections happening throughout our community. Now, if this keeps more people from moving here, we love the quiet, but our little town is big on heart and great people.
The RE3J school district is one of the best we have ever had the benefit to have our kids a part of.
