Market Overview Location La Junta, Colorado, in Otero County, is a rural community of over 7,000 citizens located approximately 160 miles southeast of Denver. La Junta, which means “The Junction,” is the county seat. For more than one hundred years the city has served as a regional center for commercial, agricultural and ranching ventures.

Today, La Junta is home to a regional medical center and specialty clinics, as well as a number of retirement communities. The area has an excellent K-12 school system and Otero Junior College. The college hosts a number of technical certificate programs, a well-regarded nursing program and a law enforcement academy. There is a number of light industries, an airport, an industrial park, a rail-yard and a downtown business district typical of small western towns.

Before that, La Junta was the junction where the Santa Fe Trail branched south to New Mexico, while a lesser route continued west to Pueblo and beyond. The Santa Fe Trail was one of the nation’s first great trade routes.

Area History

Point of Interest

The city sits on the south bank of the Arkansas River, surrounded by short-grass prairie country. The mountains for which Colorado is so famous can be seen to the west, but this is rolling prairie land. Farming dominates the landscape in a narrow corridor along the river, while a short excursion north or south of US Highway 50 brings travelers to miles upon miles of grasslands.

24

Otero County, established in 1889, is 1,268 square miles in size, has an average elevation of 3,600 feet above sea level and has a population density of 15 persons per square mile. The pioneers recognized the location and importance of Otero County as a trade center, and the same outlook remains today as it continues to be the trade hub for southeastern Colorado. Otero County’s diverse economy consists of industrial, agriculture, historical sites and recreational activities.

National Historic Site: Bent’s Old Fort Bent’s Old Fort National Historic Site is located just 5 miles from La Junta and over 150 years back in time. This reconstructed trading post located on the Santa Fe Trail was the last United States outpost before crossing the Arkansas River and entering Mexico. It became the most important frontier hub during the era of “Manifest Destiny” for a growing young country. American trade and influence radiated from here south into Mexico, west into the Great Basin and north to southern Wyoming. The Fort was originally built in 1833-34 by brothers Charles and William Bent and Ceran St. Vrain for the Native American fur trade but soon became an important stop along the Santa Fe Trail. In its hey-day it was know as the only civilization between Independence, Missouri and Santa Fe, Mexico. This early nineteenth century fort is filled with period furnishings and hosts historic re-enactors throughout the year during several special events.

Higher Education On September 15, 1941, “La Junta Junior College” opened its doors to the first class. The college was operated by the La Junta school district and was classified as a continuation school. On January 1, 1956, the college governing board voted to take over the existing facilities from the La Junta School District, and the college changed its name to “Otero Junior College.” The college became primarily a transfer institution emphasizing the first two years of a four-year degree program. Today students from all over the state and even the world attend Otero Junior College.
