Boulder, Colorado, located about twenty-five miles northwest of Denver, is a municipality of over 97,000 people (its larger Boulder US Census-designated CO Metropolitan statistical Area consists of over 294,000 residents).

*The Housing and Human Services Advisory Committee
== Co-operative Housing ==
Co-operative (co-op) housing has become an increasingly used option in Boulder. For many years, co-ops were essentially illegal, as Boulder's bylaws stipulated occupancy numbers of not more than three or four unrelated individuals.
Boulder's ordinances have changed to include co-op housing but the bylaws still do not appear to meet the needs of co-op residents and new co-ops have met resistance in the community and at the City.
== Land Use ==
Boulder Valley Comprehensive Plan ( BVCP)
== YIMBYTown 2016 ==
Line 36 ⟶ 46:

Better Boulder advocates for a range of smart development initiatives: affordable housing, walkable communities, sustainable transportation, infill development, environmental stewardship, and inclusiveness.
