Site Selectors

Colorado Springs is a city that’s ready for legacy-minded business and built for what comes next. A young, educated, highly skilled workforce, including graduates from seven local colleges and more than 350 transitioning service members each month, gives companies verified access to a deep, diverse talent pipeline.

The city’s robust defense ecosystem is powered by five military installations, more than 2,300 veterans transitioning annually, and a strong presence in cybersecurity, aerospace, engineering, and advanced manufacturing, making it a strategic fit across industries.

The national rankings back it up. Colorado Springs has been named the No. 1 Most Desirable Place to Live for five straight years by U.S. News and World Report, the No. 5 best-performing city in the U.S. by the Milken Institute, and the No. 2 up-and-coming tech market in North America by CBRE. Population has grown by 17,000 over the past five years to nearly 770,000, with another 24,000 projected, and 41.2% of residents hold a bachelor’s degree or higher.

A competitive cost of living, development-ready sites, efficient permitting, and targeted incentives round out a market built by design, not accident, for scale. And a dedicated team stands ready to support due diligence at every step — from site tours to transparent disclosure of risks and constraints.

Whether the project is an expansion or a relocation, Colorado Springs offers the data, the fit, and the environment you need to move a decision forward with confidence.
