Haxtun is a quiet, small‑town base on Colorado’s eastern plains—ideal for a multi‑week travel‑therapy gig if you value low traffic, friendly neighbors, affordable basics, and wide open skies for after‑work runs or weekend drives.
The nearest larger hub is Sterling, about a 30–35 mile drive, which provides big‑box stores, groceries and more dining/entertainment options when you want a bigger‑city run.
