Eagle

Eagle, Colorado is located along the I-70 corridor in between Vail and Glenwood Springs and has ~6,500 residents. This is a very pretty area with lots of trees and mountain views. The area is hilly and there are different housing options available. In town you can find some apartments and attractive, older Victorian homes. Outside of town there are some incredible custom homes which go for in the millions of dollars range. As with many of the towns in this part of Colorado the median household income is higher than the rest of the state, while the housing prices are significantly above state averages. The main industry in Eagle is construction.

One of the great things about living in this part of Colorado is it's an outdoor lovers dream. Within minutes are world class ski resorts, hiking, camping, and fishing. If you like being outside, this is definitely a place to be. The people are all friendly and there is more of a small town atmosphere here, at least more so than other neighboring towns. The schools here are mostly above average when it comes to state testing standards. Overall, I think this would be a great town to live in or raise a family in.
