What You Should Know
Superior is a town in Boulder County, Colorado. A small portion of the town
lies in neighboring Jefferson County. According to 2006 Census Bureau
estimates, the population of the city is 10,308.
Superior's history is one of coal mining. The first mines in the area were developed in the late 1800's. The Town itself was founded in 1896 and incorporated in 1904. The Town reportedly was named after the "superior" quality of coal found in the area.
Mining was the major force in Superior's history until the Industrial Mine closed in 1945. Subsequently, many people moved out of the area and the Town evolved into a quiet ranching and farming community. The Town's population hovered around 250 until recently.
