My Visit To |

Back to: Home Page - Photos Page - Livermore (California) Sites Page |
I visited Livermore, Colorado
on April 12, 2007, while on a trip to Ft. Collins Colorado.
I had the pleasure of talking to several very friendly people in town, including the postmaster and a lady who worked at The Forks, which is the gas station / restaurant / bakery in town.
I found out that Livermore, Colorado was named for two Englishmen, one named "Liver" and the other named "More" (not sure of the spelling of that one).
The population is about 6500, spread out over a large area.
What follows are several photos from Livermore, Colorado.
If you have any additional information or
corrections, please email me at

I would like to hear from you.

The US Census has no data on Livermore, Colorado. 6500 comes from a resident that I talked to. 1455 comes from a schools site, with no date. Given the rural nature of Livermore, Colorado, and the fact that the post office serves to the state border in three directions, population variations could be expected.
