Superior, Colorado Real Estate and Relocation Information
Superior, 5 minutes from Boulder and 30 minutes from downtown Denver,
began as a coal mining town, as did nearby Louisville, in the late
1890s. After the decline of coal mining in the 1940s Superior settled
down into a quiet ranching and farming community of about 250 residents,
just a wide spot in the road between Denver and Boulder.
Then in the late 1980s and early 1990s the whole area began to grow
because of the expansion of the tech industry along the Denver-Boulder
corridor. Rock Creek Ranch and Sagamore, built in the 1990s and still
adding homes today, have added 10,500+ residents to Superior’s
population. Expected population when building is completed in the
next few years will be 12,000-15,000. The town has invested in parks
and recreational facilities, competing with the most upscale facilities
in the area. Superior was home to the prestigious Parade of Homes
in the early 1990s.
