Conifer is a mountain town ideal for those who love the outdoors and a small-town feel. Here's a breakdown of some of the Pro's & Con's of Conifer living.


Pro's

Natural Paradise: Conifer is surrounded by mountains and forests, offering plenty of hiking, biking, fishing, and wildlife viewing opportunities.
Small-town Charm: The town has a close-knit community feel with friendly residents.
Milder Winters: For a mountain town, Conifer has relatively mild winters with less snow than you might expect, thanks to its location in a "banana belt."
Affordability: While still higher value than the national average, Conifer offers more bang for your buck on housing compared to neighboring towns like Evergreen.


Con's

Less Amenities: Conifer has lots of small shops, and modern convenience, but lacks big box stores which are a short drive to the city.
Higher Home Insurance: The risk of fire to our beautiful forests means insurance cost difficulty.
Limited job market: Most residents here commute to the city, or run small businesses. Many local jobs are service-based.
