Anyone who lives in Colorado already knows how amazing it is here and the amazing cities we have in our state. Whether its Morrison with its iconic Red Rocks Amphitheater, Denver with his diverse downtown scene, or our College communities in Boulder and Fort Collins, there’s something for everyone!

While those cities did not make the list, two Colorado Cities ranked in the Top 30 of U.S. News & World Report’s “Best Places to Visit in the USA” list!

Those two cities were actually back to back with Telluride being at #24 and Colorado Springs ranking at #25.

Telluride was highlighted for its year-round appeal to visitors such as the winter ski festivities and the Summers gorgeous hiking opportunities such as the San Juan Skyway.

Colorado Springs was featured for their outdoor adventures as well, on top of many of their tourist attractions such as Garden of the God’s, The Pikes Peak Cog Railway and the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum.
