Fort Collins

Cool, laid back, and outdoorsy sums up what life is like in this picturesque Northern Colorado town in the foothills of the Rockies. Home to Colorado State University, it’s a college town with an all-American Main Street lined with boutique shops and restaurants, a vintage trolley, and more than 20 craft breweries. With thriving employment, a robust arts and music scene, museums, entertainment, and educational opportunities, this quickly growing city—the fourth largest in the state—manages to combine big city amenities and a charming small-town vibe.
