Licensed Practical Nurse Come to Alamosa and experience the Mystic San Luis Valley and Great Sand Dunes The Community – Alamosa The City of Alamosa is in Alamosa County, Colorado, United States. The city population was 8,780 at the 2010 United States Census. The city is the commercial center of the San Luis Valley in south-central Colorado, and is the home of Adams State University. Alamosa was established in May 1878 by the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad and quickly became an important rail center. The railroad had an extensive construction, repair and shipping facility in Alamosa for many years and headquartered its remaining narrow gauge service here with trackage reaching many points throughout southwest Colorado and northern New Mexico. Alamosa is now a notable tourist town with many nearby attractions, including the Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, Colorado Gators Reptile Park and the Rio Grande Scenic Railroad. The town hosts "Summer Fest on the Rio" which occurs the first weekend in June, the Early Iron car show over the Labor Day weekend, and "Weekends on the Rio" on various Sundays throughout the summer The city takes its name from the Spanish adjective Alamosa, meaning "of cottonwood", for the cottonwood forests which grow along the Rio Grande and throughout town. Whether you like to plan in advance or just go with the flow, you'll never run out of things to do here in Alamosa. The great outdoors? Check. History? Of course. Amazing vistas? They're everywhere you look. How about culture? Our roots run deep in culture, so much so that the San Luis Valley's historic influence can be found in each of our activities and destinations. Perhaps the best thing to do is simply experience the unexpected. One thing's for sure, the moment you set foot in town you'll be a welcoming adventure with open arms.
