Three Distinct Towns. One County.

Three distinct, vibrant towns in one small County:

There are three incorporated municipalities and two school districts in Chaffee County, each offering a unique version of the Chaffee County lifestyle. This adds up to a lively mix of atmosphere, events, traditions and school rivalries in one county. And because each is no more than 25 miles from the other, County residents are able to enjoy a combination of all there is to offer.
