Happiness Starts Here
Durango and La Plata County are known for their mountain views, open trails, and vibrant culture. But, what truly defines this place are the people who make it work. From teachers and healthcare workers to small business owners and outdoor guides, our community is built on the balance between opportunity and quality of life.
Move to Durango
Living here means being part of a community that shows up for one another. We’re proud of our thriving local economy and tight-knit neighborhoods, but like many mountain towns, we’re also navigating housing costs, childcare gaps, and limited infrastructure.
Move to Durango was created by the La Plata Economic Development Alliance to make relocation easier and more transparent. Learn what to expect and explore the resources we’ve gathered to help you connect with employers, understand our real estate market, and review school options.
