Thornton is a city in Adams County, Colorado, with an estimated total population of 105,182. Beginning solely as farmland, Thornton has seen sweeping changes in population and economics that have brought opportunity to the area. To help guide the community's development, the Thornton Community Association (TCA) continues to bring new business to the region via valuable development initiatives.

Thornton is a suburb north of Denver, CO and shares that city's business and entertainment opportunities. Thus, Thornton consistently ranks as one of the most desirable areas to live in the United States. Residents have easy access to the 28 major resort areas found in the nearby Rocky Mountains, as well as plentiful cultural activities including museums, gardens, the opera and symphony.

On the business front, Thornton professionals routinely commute to the city of Denver for additional opportunities. But plenty of major employers can be found within the city limits. Here are a few of Thornton's major businesses:
  • EchoStar
  • T-mobile
  • North Suburban Medical Center
  • American Furniture Warehouse
  • Wal-Mart

Business development is always on the mind of the Thornton Chamber of Commerce. One of the city's proudest assets is its ability to attract new forms of industry. Other businesses that will make a play for growth and expansion in the future of Thornton include:
