Real stories from people who chose Pueblo as their home
I choose Pueblo because…
“Pueblo really checked a lot of boxes on both the business side and on the personal side for access to the outdoors, cost of living and ability to purchase a home.”
“Quite a few of our employees are really excited to leave Denver and come to Pueblo. Everyone is getting sick and tired of the traffic and the cost of living here. So, it was not merely a business decision, it was also a people decision.”

“We were overwhelmed with the small town feel, welcoming spirit of the people, and the quiet structural improvements occurring around this culturally diverse city.”
“As recent empty nesters we wanted to downsize and downshift, but we also have career experiences that we hoped to utilize in a city where positive growth was taking place. After visiting Pueblo, we were overwhelmed with the small town feel, welcoming spirit of the people, and the quiet structural improvements occurring around this culturally diverse city. We chose Pueblo because it is a perfect fit for us. We are more relaxed, we get to play all along Colorado’s beautiful front range, and we are contributing to Pueblo’s promising future.”
“There are so many family-friendly activities and the weather is fantastic!”
“I chose Pueblo because it felt like home. My husband and I had moved for work several times over five years and ultimately were given the option to live anywhere in Southern Colorado. After visiting and doing some research, we chose Pueblo. It had a small-town feel with bigger city amenities. Since we both grew up in the mid-west, we appreciated that there are water and trees. There are so many family-friendly activities and the weather is fantastic! I am very happy that we chose Pueblo to become our home.”
Serving up all 4 seasons with plenty of sunshine and mild days!
