Eastwood Heights Homes for Rent

Eastwood Heights, also known as the Dog Patch Barrio, is a small, close-knit neighborhood on the east side of Pueblo. Established in the 1950s, this community is known for its unity and resilience, despite its past neglect. The neighborhood is slightly isolated but conveniently located between major state routes, facilitating easy travel. Housing in Dog Patch includes a mix of mobile homes near Colorado State University-Pueblo and single-family homes east of Oakshire Lane and Beaumont Street. These homes, often under 1,000 square feet, are typically ranch-style with adobe brick and stucco roofing, and range from investment properties to newer models. Community features include La Gente Youth Sports, which offers affordable sports leagues for children, and Eastwood Heights Park, which provides green space, a playground, and a gazebo. Saint Anne’s Park, adjacent to St. Anne’s Catholic Church, includes a baseball field and picnic benches. Dining options are limited, with fast-food chains on Troy Avenue and Riverside Bar and Grill on Route 47 known for its sloppers. The nearby East Side neighborhood offers Taco Salsa and the Eastside Farmers Market for fresh produce. Local schools include Baca Elementary, Heaton Middle School, and Pueblo East High School, which offers various career preparation courses. Public transportation is accessible via Pueblo Transit bus stops, and major highways connect to Interstate 25, leading to Denver and Colorado Springs. The Pueblo Memorial Airport, providing daily flights to Denver, is also accessible via Highway 50.
