Where is the most affordable housing in Colorado?
Many of Colorado’s most budget-friendly housing markets can be found in southern and rural areas like Walsenburg, La Veta, and parts of Las Animas and Huerfano Counties. These regions offer lower property taxes, attractive land prices, and access to nature—making them ideal for retirees, remote workers, or first-time buyers.
Towns like Trinidad, Rocky Ford, and Alamosa are often among the most affordable places to buy a house in Colorado. These communities provide some of the lowest housing prices, with listings often under $150,000, especially for manufactured homes, mobile homes, and modest single-family residences.
Housing in parts of Colorado Springs, Denver, and resort towns can be considered overpriced due to demand, limited inventory, and higher cost of living. However, many regions of southern and southeastern Colorado continue to offer homes for sale at reasonable prices with assessed values and property tax bills that are far more manageable for middle-class buyers.
As of the latest data, the average home price in Colorado is around $550,000. That said, prices can vary by area. Smaller towns and rural regions present valuable opportunities with cheap houses, lower taxes, and great potential for equity growth, especially with smart tax strategies like capital gains tax planning or tax loss harvesting.
