Castle Rock, Colorado in Family Circle Top Ten

Mark Richards-Castle Rock/Denver Real Estate (Cherry Creek Properties) — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 12:40:39 -0700

And one of the Winners Is: Castle Rock, Colorado

Family Circle Magazine set out to find communities across the country that combine big-city opportunities with suburban charm. Those communities had to offer an ideal blend of affordable houses, good jobs, top-rated schools, wide-open spaces, and, plain and simple, just a lot less stress. Castle Rock, Colorado was named among the Top Ten perfect places to call home!

Many of us desire the same things: fewer crowds, less concrete, less hassles, more serenity, nature and neighbors we can count on. That's probably why Family Circle chose Castle Rock, Colorado as one of the Top Ten places to raise a family, where living costs, commute times, and crime rates are low, and the educational and cultural scenes are way above average. Moms and dads step up to help their children thrive; they volunteer in schools and coach sports teams. People in Castle Rock, Colorado will tell you, life is good... :-)

Mark & Wendy - On the Streets in Castle Rock, Colorado...

Mark Richards-Castle Rock/Denver Real Estate (Cherry Creek Properties) — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 22:54:49 -0700

The Castle Rock Museum

Unlike many parts of the west it was not gold that put Castle Rock, Colorado on the map, but rather, it was the discovery of rhyolite stone. Used for building exteriors, rhyolite was abundantly found in the butte countryside surrounding Plum Creek. In 1875 the Denver & Rio Grande Railway built the new train depot using rhyolite. The depot building is now home to the Castle Rock Historical Museum, where visitors can relive the 125 plus year history of Castle Rock, Colorado. By the way, it is on the National Register of Historic Places.

The museum is open Wednesdays through Saturdays, Noon to 5:00. Admission is free. It is a really cool place and you can't beat the price!
