I love living in Longmont. Between the lakes, trails, farmers market, coffee shops, downtown area and family friendly environment, I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else! The schools are great, the people are amazing, and the sense of community is strong and getting stronger.

I love Longmont, CO! I live in such an accepting town. Everyone is so welcoming and I feel very included anywhere I go. People in Longmont are super friendly which makes going into town a blast! The landscape in Longmont is beautiful as it is so close to the Mountains. It is the perfect place to go on walks outside and enjoy the summer weather!
I have lived in Longmont since I was six years old. It has become my home and around every corner I have memories. It's a beautiful town about 20 minutes from boulder. Gorgeous views of the mountains. Most of the people are friendly and people wave when you pass them in your car. Longmont feels like a small town that is not really that small. There are so many different places to eat and a bunch of clothing stores. When you go down town to Main Street there are dozens of little shops including shoes stores, cafes, trinket stores, candy shops, tattoo studios, pet groomers, salons, and much more. Down town is also home to above store apartments and adorable old houses. If you are a pet owner then you will be happy to know there are several different dog parks around town. Also several family pet stores and groomers along with self washing stations, small town family businesses. During the holidays there's an outdoor ice skating rink with a park that has festivals and other celebrations.
