Delta
The city of Delta was incorporated in 1882 and is located in the East-Central part of Delta County, Colorado. It’s truly surrounded by natural beauty, with the Dominguez-Escalante National Conservation Area to its west, and the Gunnison Gorge National Conservation Area to its east.

One of the Colorado River’s largest tributaries, the Gunnison River, runs through Delta just slightly North of the central commerce area.

Delta is in the 81416 zip code and the area contains many wonderful parks with amazing mountain views. It’s also home to Devil’s Thumb Golf Course and Ultimate Skydiving Adventures, both located to the north of Delta’s central hub.
As of the 2020 United States Census, the population of Delta is 9,035.
