Safe but be aware of your surroundings
Fort Collins (FoCo) is a large city with a small town atmosphere. Locals are typically warm, inviting and ready to help. Because of our caring environment there has been a rise in transient populations. We advise visitors to just be aware of their surroundings when walking home late at night. Otherwise, FoCo is a wonderful place to be and we are excited to have family and new friends visit!
