FRONT RANGE URBAN CORRIDOR
The 'Front Range Urban Corridor' is an oblong region of urban population located along the eastern face of the Southern Rocky Mountains in the U.S. states of Colorado and Wyoming. The United States Census Bureau estimates that the Front Range Urban Corridor had a population of 4,089,597 in 2006, an increase of 10.88% since U.S. Census 2000.
