"Padroni is a small farm town not far from Sterling in NE Colorado"

Padroni is only about 5 miles from North Sterling reservior and surrounded by big ag fields and cattle ranches. The town of Sterling is about 10 miles to the south and I-76. There is not too much happening in Padroni and only about 100 people life there.

Padroni is too far from the Front Range to really commute, especially on a regular basis and DIA the airport is a haul away as well. Out in this are of NW Colorado you can not see the mountains to the west and it feels more like nearby Nebraska than what many think of as Colorado. The dry hot summer wind blows and the cold dry winter wind as well. This is a farming community and also has some truckers that live there due to the trucking industry along I-76. The average household income is about $25,000 a year, well below Colorado's average.
Cons
  • hot summers/windy cold winters
  • no amenities
  • remote

"One of the least populated places in Colorado"

Padroni is a tiny little town just 20 minutes north of Sterling. With only 76 residents, there are no amenities to speak of. All of the residents work in one of three industries: educational services, information, or construction, in that order. There are no stores or restaurants and residents must travel to Sterling for just about everything.

The median household income in Padroni is $36,432 while the average median priced home costs $90,000, so if you're willing to give up luxuries like nearby shopping or dining out, this may be a good option for you. However, as of right now I couldn't find any properties for sale although I found a website saying 11% of the homes in Padroni were unoccupied, so you could probably find one if you wanted to.
Cons
  • remote
  • no amenities
