"Crook is basically a Nebraska feeling place..."
Crook is a little NW Colorado town of about 150 people about 10 miles from the border with Nebraska. The town lies just north of I-70 and is not far west of where I-70 & I-80 meet in Nebraska. The trucking industry and agriculture is strong in the area, this is a remote area and people do not commute to any area cities, the Front Range communities of Colorado are hours away. The closest town is Sterling to the west on I-70.
The household income is about $30,000, a bit below Colorado average. The people are nice and the the area has a true country feel, more like the midwest than western really. But you will find your far share of cowboys.

"A small little town in the northeastern corner of Colorado"
Crook is a small town located in the northeast corner of Colorado. With only 110 residents, there isn't much to do here. There is a small park for the kids right off of the main street, and a gas station, a post office, and several small businesses. The main roads through town are paved, but the streets with all of the homes on them are still dirt, making for quite a mess in the wintertime and when rain comes.
The largest industry in Crook is agriculture, forestry, hunting and fishing. The median household income is $37,852 and the average price for a home here is $57,596, but this number takes into account mobile homes as well. Crook is just a couple miles off of I-76 so it's a convenient place for truckers to live. The nearest decent sized town is Sterling, which is about half an hour away.
