Rural living and a developing market in Mead
Rural living meets a modern housing market in Mead, a small, Weld County town less than 10 miles from downtown Longmont. Open fields and farmland separate the area’s housing developments, and most communities have homeowners association amenities, from sports facilities to outdoor pools. “Mead is a growing area with new developments and a small-town feel,” says Abby Renner, a local managing broker and owner of RE/MAX Nexus. “You can get lots of acreage and you’re less than a mile from the interstate.”
Mead is a historically agricultural town with a small town feel and close to other major cities in Colorado.
