Download or read book 1001 Colorado Place Names written by Maxine Benson and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it came to labeling cities, towns, counties, crossroads, mining camps, rivers, forests, peaks, and passes, Colorado place namers looked to an array of sources for ideas. Many simply memorialized themselves and their families—Florence, Howard, Lulu City, Dacono (Daisy, Cora, and Nora combined)—or more well-known honorees—Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Kit Carson, Montezuma, Ouray. Some paid homage to explorers, war heroes, politicians, railroad executives, plants, animals, or landforms. Still others went for the more unusual or creative—Boreas Pass bears the name of the Greek god of the North Wind; Egnar is range backwards; Kim was inspired by the Rudyard Kipling novel; Artesia was renamed Dinosaur in 1965 to capitalize on tourist traffic headed to nearby Dinosaur National Monument; Almont was named for a horse, Gulnare a cow. In 1001 Colorado Place Names, Maxine Benson scrutinizes the most popular, interesting , and unique place names in the state. She discusses how the chosen names originated and what changes they have undergone. Included are Colorado's 63 counties, 716 past and present settlements, and 56 "fourteeners" (peaks more than 14,000 feet in elevation) along with other places known for their historical, geographical, geological, or onomastic significance. Benson also provides pronunciation of unusual names, county locations, post office dates, population figures, and anecdotes galore. The result is a mosaic of information of Colorado history, ethnicity, families, events, politics, settlement patterns, and local lore. Combining previous place-name research and new findings, Benson takes us on a colorful, entertaining, and educational journey through cities and towns, across the plains, and over the mountains.

Book excerpt: The concept of living index or liveability is to measure the quality of life and wellbeing of residents across all counties, cities/towns and zip codes using neighbourhood level data and advanced analytical methods. Ultimately, it aims to answer the question: which counties, cities/towns and zip codes offer the most suitable conditions for investment, business and individual successes?The rating of a county, city/town and zip code is based on its position on the distribution of scores in comparison with all locations. The key dimensions that directly and indirectly affect the quality of life and wellbeing are Housing, Employment, Education, Income, Socio-Economic Wellbeing, and Access to Transport.Evidence-based strategic decisions likely increase the chance of success, unlock new opportunities and maximize long-term returns to investors, businesses and individuals.The USA Living Index 2019 is an attempt to systematically assess and compare the key economic and social dimensions for all counties, cities/towns and zip codes in the United States of America, to provide factual evidence for individuals, investors, businesses and governments to make informed strategic decisions when location factor is matter most.This publication also intends to be useful data source for migrants who are finding the most suitable counties, cities and towns to live and work; as well as for American people to find the most promising areas to start their new endeavours.
