| Breckenridge Snowy Autumn View |
Breckenridge is referred to as a "Genuine Town with Genuine People". The Town of Breckenridge was born out of America's mid-nineteenth century rush to settle the West during Pike's Peak Gold Rush. In December 1961, Rounds and Porter, a Wichita, Kansas, lumber company, opened the Breckenridge Ski Area and a new ski-boom era began.
The Breckenridge permanent resident population grew from 393 in 1960 to 3,126 at the end of 2002. The number of Breckenridge housing units has increased from only 325 units in 1970 to approximately 6,351 units by the end of 2002. Breckenridge still serves as the county seat and is a center of activity for Summit County.
