Kit Carson is located on the eastern plains of Colorado 150 miles south east of Denver at the joining point of US Highway 287 and US Highway 40. State Highway 59 begins at Kit Carson and heads north, providing access to Interstate 70. State Highway 94 is twenty miles east of Kit Carson and provides access to Colorado Springs, which is located 113 west of Kit Carson at the foot of Pikes Peak.

Kit Carson is home to 350 industrious, friendly people. Motels, restaurants, and auto service facilities are available to the many travelers using highways 287 and 40. Farming, ranching, and oil production also support the economic base of the community.

Kit Carson is home to the Kit Carson Outreach Clinic, a local medical facility provided in cooperation with Keefe Memorial Hospital. The Kit Carson School District R-l provides quality education to K-12 students. Our city building was recently renovated to provide a wonderful location for town gatherings, meetings, or family get-togethers. Historical sites include the Kit Carson Museum (open from Memorial Day to Labor Day) and the Kit Carson Pool Hall. The "Pool Hall" is listed on the National Historic Buildings Register. With its wooden stage, bar, and beautiful hardwood floor, it brings back memories of the not so distant past.

Labor Day weekend each year the town is the host to "Kit Carson Day". A pancake breakfast, amateur rodeo, exhibits, noon barbecue, parade, games and a melodrama provide plenty of entertainment for the weekend.

We are very proud of our volunteers in the community. The volunteer fire department maintains modern fire fighting equipment and the volunteer EMT's provide emergency medical treatment to local citizens, visitors and travelers passing through the area.

Named after the famous "Scout", we think Kit Carson is where the "West" really begins. We invite you to stop by for a visit.
