"A Great Place to Visit"

St. Mary's is one of those small, hidden gems of Colorado. In addition to the excellent hiking in the beautiful mountains of Colorado, there is a really great atmosphere up here. The St. Mary's Glacier hike is well worth the drive and energy expended to get up the mountain. The surrounding views are spectacular and the drive up to the town is scenic. For visitors interested in Colorado history, there is the small ghost town of Alice here. There is even a small museum at the old schoolhouse.

The town itself is small with only 283 residents, most of who work in retail or construction. The median household income is $46,558 and a lot of the town's residents live in the Silver Lake Condominiums. The condos, being cheaper than houses bring down the average housing price quite a bit here.

Overall I would recommend St. Mary's for tourists or Coloradans who just want to get away for a while.
