Colorado Springs South Homes:

Cheyenne Meadows

Bordered by Highway 115 on the West and Interstate 25 on the East, this neighborhood is great for commuters. It’s, also, a hop, skip and a jump to Fort Carson Army Base. The neighborhood of single-family homes and apartment complexes, was established primarily in the 80s and 90s and is near Quail Lake and Cheyenne Mountain State Park. Take Fido to the Cheyenne Meadows Dog Park for a good time.

Stratton Meadows

Bordered by Highway 115, Lake Ave. and lower Memorial Park, Stratton Meadows is an affordable neighborhood and its proximity to Fort Carson Army Base is so convenient. The neighborhood was developed starting in the 1940s through today and contains small to medium sized, single-family homes and several apartment complexes.

Security-Widefield

A suburb of Fountain Valley, this unincorporated community was built on the prairie with several pockets of planned housing neighborhoods dating back to approximately the 1970s through today. Security-Widefield is another affordable region of El Paso County. East to West running Fontaine Blvd. divides the community in half and by local opinion, Security is North and Widefield is South. Nice features to the area are the Bluestem Prairie Open Space and Venetucci Farm.

Fountain

If “Main Street” makes you think of a quiet and community based, small town, then Fountain is one of those places. With Fountain Creek running through it, this valley has a strong ranching and agricultural history. The area is a combination of country living and urban amenities. And it has quick access, via I-25, to the cities of Colorado Springs or Pueblo. The area dates back as far as 1859, but has new houses being built every day as the area grows in popularity. The lush parks and trails top it off as a lovely place to live in El Paso County.

Pueblo

One of the biggest cities South of Colorado Springs (until you reach New Mexico), Pueblo offers much of the same amenities of The Springs. Known as the “Steel City,” its economy was based on the Colorado Fuel and Iron Steel Mill for a long time. It still produces steel, but the city has turned to renewable energy with Vestas Wind Systems, which has constructed one of the largest wind turbine tower manufacturing plants in the world. You can get some culture in the city at The Historic Arkansas Riverwalk, a downtown development with public art and events. It is one of the most affordable cities in Colorado. Visit Lake Pueblo State Park, West of Pueblo, which is popular for boating, fishing and camping.

Cañon City

Southwest of Pueblo and about 45 minutes from Colorado Springs, Cañon City has some amazing things to see and do. You might even want to stay permanently. The Royal Gorge is just west of the city and you should take a magnificent rail journey aboard the Royal Gorge Route Railroad. Visit the award winning Winery at Holy Cross Abbey or the unique Museum of Colorado Prisons. White water rafting and rock climbing adventures await on the East flowing Arkansas River. The plentiful hiking paths, public parks, fossil discoveries and sightseeing opportunities make it perfect. We love it enough to have a Berkshire Hathaway HS location in nearby Florence, CO!
