Coolidge

The landscape around Coolidge is broad, semi-arid High Plains country near the Arkansas River corridor, which has shaped both the town’s compact form and its farming economy. Set close to the Colorado border in Hamilton County, this small western Kansas community occupies a route long defined by travel and freight across the plains: US Highway 50 runs through town, while the BNSF Railway follows the corridor. The surrounding area is associated with the historic Santa Fe Trail, whose westward route used the Arkansas River valley. Fields, grain facilities and long horizons give Coolidge a practical working-plains character.
