Living in Fort Collins

Fort Collins is situated over 1,500m above sea level, at the base of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Expatriates moving to Fort Collins can enjoy hiking, mountain biking, climbing and other mountain pursuits, taking in landmarks such as the Horsetooth Mountain and the Horsetooth Reservoir; which are named after a tooth-shaped granite rock that is dominating the skyline. Expats living in Fort Collins can also enjoy the historic Old Town; a beautiful place with many shops and restaurants, and an outdoor mall set among historic buildings. Fort Collins is the home of FortZED; one of the world’s largest zero energy districts that encompasses the main campus of Colorado State University. Much of the city’s culture revolves around the student population, with live music and microbreweries taking center stage. Expatriates living in Fort Collins may like to attend the Colorado Brewer’s Festival, held each June, and can discuss which breweries are worth visiting by connecting with other expats through the forums and discussion groups on InterNations.
