Rockrimmon is a well-established neighborhood on the northwest side of Colorado Springs. Built along scenic bluffs and foothills, it features dramatic views, winding streets, and easy access to Ute Valley Park for hiking and biking. Homes here range from condos with elevators (rare for this part of the city) to split-level and traditional houses with spacious yards and mountain views. Many properties back up to open space or trails. Rockrimmon’s location near Interstate 25 puts you within minutes of downtown Colorado Springs, local shopping, and the U.S. Air Force Academy. Residents also enjoy Rockrimmon Open Space, which attracts local wildlife and offers community hiking trails that connect through the neighborhood.
Rockrimmon belongs to Academy School District 20. Children attend Rockrimmon Elementary, Eagleview Middle, and Air Academy High. Many families choose to walk or bike to schools and parks along the area's connected sidewalks and bike lanes. There are several playgrounds and the nearby UCHealth Grandview Hospital for healthcare needs. Rockrimmon was developed near the old Pikeview Mine, and the state offers a special mine subsidence insurance program just for this area, which helps protect homeowners from possible ground shifts. With its parks, schools, and wide range of home styles, Rockrimmon remains a favorite for those looking for a mix of natural beauty and city convenience.
