About Highlands Ranch

Just south of Denver, you’ll find the city of Highlands Ranch, a tight-knit community with a gorgeous Colorado backdrop. Built for the family with an active lifestyle, Highlands Ranch is a place where businesses thrive, families grow, and tourists come to relax.

Before Highlands Ranch became the successful community it was today, a lot of change had to happen. If we look way back to long before white settlers came through this area, several nomadic Native American tribes inhabited this land. French explorers ousted the Ute, Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes they found on this land, and then the United States purchased the land as a part of the Louisiana Purchase in the early 1800s. Settlers began to trickle in to this area in the middle of the 1800s, but a much larger stream came through when the Colorado Gold Rush brought many travelers looking to strike it rich.

Fast-forward to modern day Highlands Ranch and you’ll find a suburban paradise. Farms and ranches are still common throughout the area, but many more planned neighborhoods and housing developments have cropped up. Its attractive location in relation to Denver brings many who like to live in Highlands Ranch and commute to Denver, which is only about twelve miles away. In recent years, a lot of development has provided residents in Highlands Ranch with many new amenities and resources, like the Highlands Ranch Library, the Highlands Ranch Chamber of Commerce, and the Northridge Recreation Center too. More companies invested in building headquarters in the area, and business success lead to more growth.

With over two dozen parks and recreational facilities, Highlands Ranch is well suited to those who enjoy the outdoors. A large network of trails around the city is available for hikers, bikers, and trail runners, and thousands of acres of open spaces are preserved in Highlands Ranch.

Served by over twenty different elementary schools and a handful of middle schools and high schools, Highlands Ranch is proud of having a great selection for families in the area. The selection consists of public, private, and charter schools. The local Highlands Ranch Library provides additional educational resources to the community, including programs, classes, and seminars each month. For families that are looking to get their child a little more help with school, local Highlands Ranch tutors are available for one-on-one assistance. With expertise in a wide variety of subjects, local tutors can help students reach their full potential!
