Idaho Springs has a population of 1,893 (and growing!) and is the largest town in Clear Creek County.

Idaho Springs and the Clear Creek County area offer many possibilities for exploring the history of the area, recreational opportunities and other activities.

The Idaho Springs City Hall (shown at right) is the old Grass Valley School House. In 1984 the school was due to be destroyed. The City of Idaho Springs bought the building and had the school house moved to its current location. The building now holds City Hall, the Idaho Springs Police Department and the Idaho Springs Municipal Court.
