AURORA - HISTORY
The community was founded in 1891, when residents called the town Fletcher. In 1907, the town changed its name to Aurora and later adopted a City seal designed by Albert Christen, which bears five stars representing home, church, school, business and industry; a rising sun indicating the rising community sharing its light and making its voice heard throughout the Rocky Mountains. The city colors of blue and gold are symbolic of our azure skies and the gold which brought settlers to Colorado.
The city has come a long way since 1891. Today, Aurora is a booming, progressive city with a population of 250,000 residents. It's the third largest city in Colorado.
