Dakota Ridge — Boulder, Colorado Subdivision Guide

Serving Boulder County

Dakota Ridge sits on Boulder's south side where the city meets open space, a contemporary subdivision of the 1980s–1990s with ranch, two-story, and walk-out homes tucked into pine-dotted slopes below the Flatirons. The neighborhood's elevation and orientation deliver some of the most striking Front Range views in Boulder, with trails connecting residents directly into the open-space network toward NCAR and the Flatirons. Table Mesa Shopping Center's grocery and services are a short drive, downtown Boulder and the University of Colorado about fifteen minutes, and the area feeds Boulder Valley schools including Fairview High School. For buyers who want Boulder's outdoor lifestyle with genuine mountain neighborhood character, Dakota Ridge is one of the city's most desirable south-side addresses.

Dakota Ridge is a wooded south Boulder subdivision of contemporary homes near the Flatirons, offering trail access, mountain views, and a short drive to Table Mesa shopping and downtown.
