Castle Rock is nationally recognized as one of Colorado’s safest and healthiest cities. It’s also one of Colorado’s wealthiest cities, but it does have pockets of affordability.

The community is also ideally located. Real estate pros note it’s a great place for commuters and not nearly as far away as people think. It’s 30 minutes to downtown Denver and 30 minutes to Colorado Springs.

The community offers a variety of restaurants and shopping, and mom-and-pop stores, including antique shops, boutiques, and flower and candy shops. It’s also known for its community events like weekend farmers’ markets and a star-lighting ceremony before Thanksgiving that kicks off the holiday season.

Many agents agree Castle Rock is the perfect, big town-small town. It’s got a small-town vibe with a great downtown with a Main Street that’s filled with old-time charm.

Castle Rock’s parks and trail system offer a variety of recreational opportunities — the town’s also home to the Arapahoe Community College Sturm Collaboration Campus and Castle Rock Adventist Hospital.
