Archuleta County, anchored by Pagosa Springs near the New Mexico border, leans Republican by double digits despite a modest tourism-driven economy — a pattern common to Colorado's rural San Juan Basin counties.
The Republican margin in Archuleta County reached its widest at forty-eight points in 1892. The margin in 2024 was fourteen points, in line with the county's deep historical pattern.
Archuleta County's loyalty is rooted in its place. Median household income of $83,065, a 80% non-Hispanic-white share, and a population of 13,900 together describe a community whose political habits are deeply settled. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Hendricks County and Kane County.
