Home to approximately 3,000 residents, the city of Dacono, Colorado is located in Weld County about 50 minutes south of Fort Collins and 25 minutes southeast from Longmont. The city got its name by taking the first two letters of three of the city's earliest residents: Daisy Baum, Cora Van Vorhies, and Nora (or Nona) Brooks. As the city is centrally situated in the Front Range of Colorado, residents are treated to fantastic views of the Rocky Mountains - the same mountains that afford a wealth of recreational activities such as hiking, skiing, camping and mountain biking. Residents looking to travel in and out of Dacono can utilize the services of Denver International Airport.

Many future homeowners are drawn to the city's affordable housing market as well as its location on the Front Range. Dacono's real estate market includes single-family homes as well as land parcels for sale, with average listing prices at just under $115,000. Dacono is also a terrific place to raise a family as the city is served by two public school districts (Fort Lupton School District and Saint Vrain Valley School District) and is within proximity to several highly regarded colleges and universities.
