Boulder is a highly educated, outdoorsy city of about 105,000 residents at the foot of the Flatirons, about 25 miles northwest of Denver. It is home to the University of Colorado Boulder and its roughly 38,000 students, federal research labs such as NIST, NOAA and NCAR, a major Google campus and the Pearl Street Mall, and Buffaloes game days at Folsom Field draw big crowds.
Boulder strictly limits billboards inside the city, so most inventory sits along US-36 (the Denver–Boulder Turnpike) and the highways leading into town. Other major routes include SH-119 (the Diagonal Highway to Longmont), SH-157 (Foothills Parkway), SH-7 (Arapahoe Avenue), SH-93 (Broadway) toward Golden, 28th Street, 30th Street, Baseline Road and Canyon Boulevard. High-traffic areas include US-36 between Denver and Boulder, the Diagonal Highway toward Longmont, and the approaches to CU Boulder and downtown.
Billboard advertising in Boulder is an effective way to build brand awareness across Boulder and Boulder County. Prices on BillboardsIn range from about $600 to more than $5,000 per month.
