Welcome to Fruita. I love Fruita! You may be thinking, “of course he would say that. He is the City Manager after all.” Yes, this is true, but it is not the reason. I have relocated 15 times in my life (son of an Army officer), and never have I had the type of experience as I have had relocating to Fruita, Colorado in the fall of 2014.
Below you'll find help resources in Fruita and throughout the Grand Valley. These links will take you outside of the City of Fruita's website, and will open in a new window. The City of Fruita cannot vouch for the content on these external websites, but if you notice something that doesn't belong here, or if you find a broken link, please let us know, and we'll try to address the problem as soon as possible. You can contact us to notify us if you notice anything that needs to be addressed.
Fruita's history boasts steady growth for over a century, with descendants of many of the original pioneers still living in the area. Today, Fruita still appreciates its western heritage and its scenic setting at the foot of the Colorado National Monument.
Located approximately 10 miles northwest of Grand Junction, the City of Fruita features some of the most varied outdoor recreation opportunities in the state of Colorado. With quick access to the Colorado National Monument, the Book Cliffs, and the Colorado River, you're sure to find something fun to do outside during your stay. If you're a resident, you probably know that in addition to all the tourism and recreational opportunities here, Fruita is a great place to live and raise a family. The small-town feel, combined with larger-town amenities, make Fruita unique.

The City of Fruita engages in a process every two to four years of conducting a Community Survey which is designed to assess citizen satisfaction with the quality of life in Fruita, City services, City policies and future growth, as well as to get the pulse of the City.
The surveys provide an easy, proactive and very cost-effective way for municipal government leaders to gather feedback and suggestions from and be more responsive to all of their constituents. The survey results are also used in establishing priorities and budgets based on the feedback.
