"Atwood is a little dusty interstate town in NE Colorado"
Atwood is only about 5 miles from Sterling that is a bit to the east down I-76. Atwood is based on agriculture, livestock and the trucking industry because of the interstate. The average household income is actually fairly high at $45,000/year and this is not because people are commuting to the Front Range. It is a very long commute to Denver.
There are only about 200 people and they are scattered through the area in ranches and farms primarily. There is a little town as well but there are very few places to shop or eat. Most Atwood residents go into Sterling for most services.

"A small town with not much to offer"
Atwood, Colorado is home to only 133 people, with over 90% of them being white. Many of the residents here work in waste management, wholesale, and manufacturing. The estimated household income for Atwood is $38,791 while the median home price here is $166,186, both of which are lower than state averages. Since Atwood lies a couple miles off of I-76, there really isn't any traffic or noise to contend with being so close to a highway.
While there really isn't anything to do in Atwood, it is only a 10 minute drive to Sterling for both shopping and dining. Children also go to Sterling for school since Atwood is just too small to have schools of its own.
