Broomfield County is Colorado's newest and smallest county, located between Denver and Boulder on relatively flat terrain at elevations around 5,200 to 5,400 feet. The county was carved from portions of four surrounding counties and represents a consolidated city-county government.

Limited agricultural activity remains due to extensive urban development, with some small-scale farming and community gardens. Most agricultural land has been converted to residential and commercial uses as the area urbanized.
