Colorado Real Estate
Colorado is one of only three states (the others are Wyoming and Utah) that have only lines of latitude and longitude for borders. The state stretches from 37°N to 41°N latitude, and from 102°02'43"W to 109°02'43"W longitude (25° to 32° west of Washington, D.C.).
East of the Southern Rocky Mountains are the Colorado Eastern Plains of the High Plains, the section of the Great Plains within Colorado at elevations ranging from 3315 to 6562 feet (1010 to 2000 meters). The states of Kansas and Nebraska border Colorado to the east. The plains are sparsely settled with most population along the South Platte and the Arkansas rivers and the I-70 corridor. Rainfall is meager, averaging from 12 to 18 inches (300 to 450 millimeters) annually. There is some irrigated farming, but much of the land is used for dry land farming or ranching.
