About Boulder

Nestled in the Rocky Mountain foothills beneath the breath-taking Flatirons lies the thriving mountain town of Boulder. With conservation easements, natural preserves, and recreational open space in and out of the city, development is tough—but living an outdoor enthusiast's dream is not. World-renowned rock climbing hides in plain sight in Eldorado Canyon, while a short 30-minute drive will land you in deep power (with local vibes) at Eldora ski resort. But Boulder's much more than an outdoor recreational mecca—it also boasts a booming economy, national-ranking high schools, and two four-year institutions: the University of Colorado Boulder and Naropa University. Pearl Street's brick-paved pedestrian walkway features a taste of the good life with vegan-friendly restaurants, microbreweries, and down-to-earth pizza joints—making it no surprise that Food & Wine magazine named it as one of the Ten Best Foodies Streets in America. Anyone after mountain views, youthful energy, and a fitness-focused culture will have no problem calling Boulder, CO, home.
