Mountain Shadows
Despite the devastating Waldo Canyon Fire in 2012 which destroyed nearly 350 homes in this area, the community has rebuilt and become even stronger. Community parks and hiking trails provide plenty of outdoor resources and home prices are primarily in the median price range in the Colorado Springs area. Many residents choose Mountain Shadows for its convenient location near Garden of the Gods Rd which is lined with shops, restaurants, and major retailers.
Manitou Springs
A quirky and lively community with a wide range of homes and history. There are frequently events, parades, and celebrations in this historic small town which is also the gateway to Pikes Peak Cog Railway. The streets are lined with quaint shops and tourist attractions, including the Manitou Arcade, Iron Springs Chateau Theater, and historic Miramont Castle. Homes tend to be older and more historic, offering a great alternative to living in downtown Colorado Springs.
