What it’s like
The place. Hasty is a very small community on the plains of southeastern Colorado, in Bent County, where everyone is likely to know one another. Homes here cost far less than in most of the country, and household incomes across the county are modest. Few adults in town hold a four-year degree.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in farming, forestry and mining, in government, and in restaurants and hotels. Across Bent County, the largest workplaces include the Las Animas School District, the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless and the McClave School District. Unemployment in the county is higher than a year ago, and there are slightly fewer jobs than there were the year before.
Things to do. John Martin Reservoir and John Martin Reservoir State Park are in or beside town, a natural place for time on the water and the shoreline. Fort Lyon, an old fort, is a short drive away, and Bent's Old Fort National Historic Site is a longer drive. Winters are cold, summers are hot, and snowfall is light, so the drier part of the year suits getting outdoors.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Hasty’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. 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 Bent County.
