Touting itself as one of the largest historical districts in the state, Salida was also
recognized nationally as one of the "ten best places to live." Like the other communities
in the upper Arkansas River Valley, Salida enjoys a peaceful location at the base of the
most spectacular mountains in the state, with the exciting Arkansas River rushing
through it.
Salida is the county seat of Chaffee County, and is the largest of all the major towns in
the upper Arkansas Valley, offering many benefits for both the tourist and casual visitor,
as well as those interested in business opportunities or retirement. Some of the best
festivals in the state are held in Salida, like the FIBArk Kayak Race and Whitewater
Festival. An art mecca for some of the most talented artists abounds here and the Art
Walk has become one of the most recognized in the state. Other events include the
Salida-Aspen Concert Series, Colorado Brewers Rendezvous, Banana Belt Bicycle
Festival, car shows and countless other events which bring thousands to the city each
year.
Chaffee County, and hence Salida, are in a state Enterprise Zone which offers many
incentives for business relocation.
