What it’s like
The place. Carr is a small community on the high plains of northern Colorado, in Weld County. Winters are cold, summers are warm, and rain and melted snow fall through the year in modest amounts. Across the county, most homes are lived in by their owners.
Work. Across Weld County, residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, professional and business services, manufacturing, and retail. Jobs grew over the last year, though unemployment has risen too, and many people still commute to work rather than working from home.
Things to do. The Cheyenne Depot Museum, a museum a longer drive away, and Lory State Park, a protected area also a longer drive away, are good places to start. Horsetooth Reservoir, a reservoir a longer drive away, is another option for time outdoors.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Weld County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Weld County and the Greeley, CO metro.
