History
Carbonate was founded as a silver camp in 1879.[4] On February 10, 1883, Colorado created Garfield County and designated Carbonate as the original county seat. The Town of Carbonate incorporated on April 13, 1883,[5] and the Carbonate post office opened the same day.[2] Carbonate's location high in the Flat Tops mountains made access difficult. After a few months, the Garfield County seat was moved to Glenwood Hot Springs. As the silver played out, miners departed. By 1890, no residents remained.
On November 4, 2014, Carbonate property owners voted 9 to 0 to reactivate the town's government in hopes of future development.[3] The town has summer visitors but no permanent residents, making it the only active incorporated municipality in Colorado with no permanent population.
