Sunset

By Jessica Car · Updated April 2026

One of Longmont's first neighborhoods, established in the 1870s as part of a Chicago-Colorado colony. Craftsman bungalows from the 1910s–1940s with front porches and stone accents sit alongside mid-century homes on tree-lined streets. Sunset Golf Course, the municipal pool with waterslides, and Roosevelt Park (live music and ice skating) are all within the neighborhood. Median around $662K.
