DEMOGRAPHICS and COMMUNITY DATA Specific data related to Chaffee County and the most current demographics can be found as part of a Citizen’s Roundtable Report: www.chaffeecounty.org/EndUserFiles/13397.pdf 65 Chaffee County Economic Development Profile Additional Demographic Data There are several sources for Demographic and Place data, most of which use the same original sources. One such web site is Sperling’s Best Places, www.bestplaces.net. According to the source, the following data is current as of 10/07 and 4/09. Going to the web site link is the best way to identify the date for a specific data set. Source: Sperling’s Best Places In 1985, Bert Sperling developed a software program named “Places, U.S.A.” which allowed people to enter their personal preferences to find their own best place. BestPlaces.net is a natural extension of our work over the last fifteen years regarding demographics, preferences, and the selection of “Best Places” to live, work, or retire. Sperling’s concepts and methodology have been the basis of numerous studies since 1985. Today, Fast Forward, Inc. (the producer of BestPlaces.net) is responsible for more “Best Places” studies and projects than any other single organization. 66 Chaffee County Economic Development Profile Source: www.bestplaces.net http://www.bestplaces.net/county/chaffee.colorado.aspx# 67 Chaffee County Economic Development Profile Source: www.bestplaces.net http://www.bestplaces.net/county/chaffee.colorado.aspx# 68 Chaffee County Economic Development Profile 69 Chaffee County Economic Development Profile Source: www.bestplaces.net http://www.bestplaces.net/county/chaffee.colorado.aspx# 70 Chaffee County Economic Development Profile Source: www.bestplaces.net http://www.bestplaces.net/county/chaffee.colorado.aspx# For a direct link to the Federal Census data: www.census.gov 71 Chaffee County Economic Development Profile School Districts Buena Vista School District R-31 (northern Chaffee County): P.O.

The service charges a fee to set up the site and an annual management fee. The State of Colorado uses the service to direct businesses to the State. For more information go to the following link. www.zoomprospector.com Site Selection database and GIS As part of the research for this Profile, the Chaffee County Planning Department compiled a list of all the Commercial and Industrial Zone Parcels in the County. A sample of this list is show below. This type of data is useful in identifing sites for potential businesses. Although this data is in it’s raw form, it could be reformated into a dynamic site selection program, similar to a multiple listing service used for residential real estate markets. The list is to large to include in this document, but will be provided to the EDC to be used in preparing a Site Selection data base for business prospects.

Maps for Buena Vista and Poncha Springs were also created. Actual maps would need to include sites within the City and Towns boundaries. These types of GIS maps could be used in connection with a list of commercial and industrial parcels to create an interactive Site Selection map where site data would be provide when a parcel was queried. 81 Chaffee County Economic Development Profile Incentives and Financial Assistance Incentives are resources used to attract prospective businesses to Chaffee County. In this market where prospective businesses are being courted by several other EDC’s, incentives or financial assistance programs may be the difference between a company choosing Chaffee County over another location. There are some Federal and State programs that are available and publicly known. One such program is the Upper Arkansas Enterprise Zone. Local jurisdictions and the EDC will need to determine if there are any incentives they are able to offer if it would secure a significant business to locate in the area. Currently, there are no incentives in place as a matter of policy in any of the jurisdictions. 82 Chaffeee County Economic Development Profile WEB SITES Government www.chaffeecounty.org www.cityofsalida.com www.buenavistaco.gov www.ponchaspringscolorado.us Official County web site City of Salida Town of Buena Vista Town of Poncha Springs Chamber of Commerce, Tourism www.salidachamber.org www.buenavistacolorado.org www.colorado.com/listing.aspx?did=122 Salida Chamber of Commerce Buena Vista Chamber of Commerce Caffee County Visitors Bureau Organizations www.coloradoheadwaters.com www.garna.org www.chaffeecountyheritage.org www.uaacog.com Chaffee County Information Greater Arkansas River Nature Association Heritage Plan Upper Arkansas Area Council of Governments State Government www.colorado.gov www.sba.gov State of Colorado Small Business Association Business News Information www.peaksnewsnet.com www.themountainmail.com www.chaffeecountytimes.com www.salidacitizen.com www.arkvalleyvoice.com News & Information for the Central Colorado Region The Mountain Mail The Chaffee County Times Salida Citizen Ark Valley Voice Blog 83 Chaffee County Economic Development Profile
