Buena Vista's economy and population are steady and healthy; our crime rate is rated extremely low. Our schools are ranked well above the state averages, with a strong athletics program. Considered by many to be the capital of whitewater rafting for the United States, the area is also popular for just about any outdoor activity that comes to mind. The beautiful scenery, acclaimed arts community and year-round mild climate make this a great place to live, work or visit. Our town government and staff are committed to preserving a down-to-earth quality of life amidst planned development and economic vitality.

We hope that this web site will foster new connections while providing citizens with needed information in a timely and user-friendly manner.
