With its natural beauty, abundant activities, safety, moderate climate and superior
health care, La Plata County sports a growing population of active seniors.
The towns, Durango, Bayfield, and Ignacio remain small enough to easily make
friends, with many opportunities for involvement in clubs, social groups and volunteer
capacities. The region is also sophisticated enough to offer the many amenities
of urban environments, including fine dining, live music and theatrical venues,
museums and art galleries, plus golf courses and winter snow activities including
alpine skiing.
