Town of Morrison

Morrison, Colorado, is a charming, historic foothill town affectionately known as “The Nearest Faraway Place”. Located just 30 minutes (about 15 miles) southwest of downtown Denver in Jefferson County, it serves as a scenic gateway to the Rocky Mountains and is home to fewer than 500 residents.

Known for its quaint atmosphere, rich paleontological history, and outdoor recreation, it offers a distinct, small-town mountain feel right at the edge of the Denver metro sprawl.
