Many flatlanders move to Fort Collins to attend Colorado State, but many more stay because of the science and technology job opportunities, the mountain vistas and most importantly—the beer.

In case you didn't know, your favorite beer is probably brewed here. Fort Collins is not only home to Anheuser-Busch, the US beer brewing giant, but also dozens of craft breweries, some of which have become national brands—like Fat Tire. Fort Collins' impressive number of breweries, plus their Annual Colorado Brewers Festival makes Fort Collins the craft brewery capital in the US.

Nestled against the eastern face of the Southern Rocky Mountains, Fort Collins is a stone's throw away from several mountain trails—which pair perfectly with a cold beer after a long ride. The only downside to this picture perfect small town—a problem for most of Colorado—is the risk of wildfire. Colorado's semi-arid climate and low-humidity coupled with dry and warm summers, make for the perfect conditions for a wildfire.

It's always smart to safeguard your home from the worst and there are many measures you can take to help reduce the risk of wildfire. It is also smart to safeguard your home from the worst. ADT, an ADT Authorized Provider, helps you protect your home against fire with their wireless ADT monitored smoke alarm.
