Statutes
Colorado law makes relatively few distinctions between a city and a town . In general, cities are more populous than towns, although the Town of Parker and the Town of Castle Rock have more than 35,000 residents each, while the City of Black Hawk has fewer than 120 residents. The Town of Garden City , the Town of Lake City , the Town of Orchard City , and the Town of Sugar City are statutory towns despite the word City at the end of their name.
Village and township are not civil divisions in the State of Colorado , although the City of Cherry Hills Village , the City of Greenwood Village , the Town of Log Lane Village , the Town of Mountain Village , and the Town of Snowmass Village have the word Village at the end of their names. Several resort communities use the word Village to describe their central business district .
