Community Profile  

Lone Tree has grown into one of the most vibrant communities in south metro Denver. With a mix of signature retail, major employers, and welcoming public spaces, the City has built a destination economy that draws people to live, work, and spend time here.

More than 15,000 residents and thousands of businesses benefit from services that are second to none. From a high-performing Police Department to the Lone Tree Arts Center and responsive City operations, the City takes pride in delivering the essentials at a very high level. Strong leadership in planning, finance, and City operations keeps Lone Tree running smoothly and supports a clear strategy for long-term growth.

The City’s financial model is also unique. Lone Tree has no municipal property tax, maintains healthy reserves and an AA+ bond rating, and keeps one of the lowest sales tax rates in Colorado. That approach has created a stable, resilient economy and a City government known for being innovative and responsible.

Location is another advantage. Sitting at the crossroads of I-25 and C-470, Lone Tree offers unmatched access for businesses and commuters. The city is home to five RTD light rail stations, multiple retail, healthcare, and office projects, and a local workforce of more than 25,000. Combined with strong neighborhoods, open spaces, and easy access to the Rocky Mountains, Lone Tree is a premier place to live, work, and grow.
