Other Cities: A History in Brief
By IntraDenver staff writer

In The Denver metropolitan area has historically consisted of six counties-Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Denver, Douglas and Jefferson. A seventh county was added to the Denver metropolitan area on November 15, 2001 when the current City of Broomfield became its own city and county. The Denver metro area includes 58 cities and unincorporated towns. It is a diverse area, ranging from a dynamic central business district with a cosmopolitan urban atmosphere to small communities with a distinctly rural flavor to picturesque mountain towns in the foothills of the Rockies.
