Real Estate Company
Alma sits at about 10,578 feet on Highway 9, just over Hoosier Pass from Breckenridge. Incorporated in 1873 as a mining and smelter town, it bills itself as the highest incorporated town in North America. Today it is a small, friendly mountain town with a historic Main Street, quick access to the Mosquito Range fourteeners, and an easy drive to Breckenridge for skiing.
The Alma address covers the historic town itself plus the surrounding subdivisions, including Placer Valley, Alma Park Estates and Glacier Ridge. Expect older in-town cabins on small lots, newer mountain homes on an acre or more, and plenty of vacant land for buyers who want to build.
Most homes outside town limits rely on wells and septic, so ask for well permits and septic records early. Winters are real at this elevation: check road maintenance, snow removal and driveway exposure. Schools are in Park County School District RE-2 in Fairplay. Many Alma buyers are Summit County workers and second-home owners looking for more space for the money.
