Overview
Living in Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs sits at the foot of Pikes Peak and has a character all its own. Historic neighborhoods like the Westside and Old Colorado City are close to Garden of the Gods, while the north side has newer master-planned communities like Flying Horse, with its private golf club.
The city is also home to Fort Carson, Peterson and Schriever Space Force Bases and the U.S. Air Force Academy. As a veteran-certified agent, Jaime understands the timelines and VA financing that come with a military move.
