Yuma County, Colorado
Yuma County is way out on the eastern plains, right up against Nebraska and Kansas. Wray and Yuma are the main towns here.
Farming is the main industry with lots of corn and wheat crops. There’s a big wind farm too. Looking to fish? Yuma also has some good fishing and hunting.
The area was hit hard by the Dust Bowl, but it bounced back. The population is just less than 10,000 people and is basically flat.
