List of cities and towns in Colorado

Main article: State of Colorado

The U.S. state of Colorado currently has 271 incorporated municipalities, comprising 196 towns, 73 cities, and two consolidated city and county governments.[1][2]

Municipal government

Colorado municipalities operate under one of five types of municipal governing authority.[3][4]

Consolidated city and county

The City and County of Denver is the more populous of the two consolidated city and county governments in the state of Colorado.

Legal distinctions

Colorado law makes relatively few distinctions between a city and a town.[3][4] A Home Rule Municipality may declare itself either a city or a town. In general, cities are more populous than towns, although the towns of Castle Rock and Parker have more than 49,000 residents each, while the City of Black Hawk has fewer than 130 residents.

The City of Central is the only Colorado municipality that does not place its full place name at the end of its municipal name. The towns of Garden City, Lake City, Orchard City, and Sugar City are statutory towns despite the word "city" at the end of their name. The municipality of Creede uses the official title "City of Creede" despite its status as a Colorado statutory town.

Village and civil township are not civil divisions in the State of Colorado, although the cities of Cherry Hills Village and Greenwood Village and the towns of Log Lane Village, Mountain Village, and Snowmass Village have the word "village" at the end of their names. Several resort communities use the word "village" to describe their central business district.

In Colorado, a municipality may extend into multiple counties.
