Outside City Limits
Many of the homes located in the northern part of Brews and North are located outside of Fort Collins city limits while still having a Fort Collins address. This is a good area to home shop in if you are looking for houses that have the benefits of being outside city limits, like lacking Home Owner Associations (or HOAs).
Beer, Beer, and More Beer
Named Brews and North for a reason, this part of Fort Collins hosts a large number of craft breweries. This is largely due to the proximity to the Poudre River. However, this area also is home to Anheuser Busch. Known for their Budweiser beer and their clydesdales horses. Brewery tours are avaliable at many of the breweries and a great way to spend the day with out-of-town guests.
