We Speak

In 2018 alone, Longmont was recognized as having the fastest internet in the country, was named the 2nd best city in America for STEM workers, and received for the second time the prestigious All-American City Award, having previously won in 2006.

A Growing Community
When Longmont was founded in 1871, the population was fewer than 400 people and the economy relied entirely on agriculture. In the 150 years since, the population has grown to nearly 100,000 and our ambitions have grown with it. Longmont is truly ahead of the curve in technological innovation with the second highest number of patents per capita of any city in the nation. Though the community is growing, Longmont has retained its classic small-town feel.
