The eastern part of El Paso County, Colorado offers home buyers the opportunity to stretch out into some incredibly wide open spaces while taking in some truly incredible views to the west of "Pikes Peak" and the Front Range. These areas generally feature rolling grasslands, very few trees and great views, with the exception of a handful of subdivisions located in and around the Bijou Basin. The Bijou Basin is a well-watered grassland nestled in an enclosed valley surrounded by pine ridges and interesting landforms such as Fremont Fort. In many places the pines feather into the grassland or extend into the basin along the drainages, creating an interesting mosaic of vegetation.
Rivers Divide is a medium sized subdivision located in the Bijou Basin. This subdivision consists of 91 home sites averaging 5 acres per site. Rivers Divide features a wide range of terrain, from rolling grasslands to alpine like areas. Homes in this subdivision are on well and septic systems, there is electricity but no natural gas so propane tanks are common. This is a great subdivision for horse lovers. Lots are generally zoned for 2 or more horses and access to some of the areas best riding trails is close by.

Here is the January Permit Activity report from the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department. Although at this report looks pretty anemic, it at least shows some activity, just not very robust.
I think the residential remodel increase says it all, the attitude seems to be “Don’t move, just improve”.
