Welcome to Animas City and Riverview

Conveniently situated in the heart of Durango along the scenic Animas River and its accompanying river trail, these neighborhoods showcase a diverse blend of homes ranging from historic dwellings dating back to the early 1900s to contemporary new construction options. Within this sought after community, residents have access to the Animas River Park, The Durango Recreation Center, Riverview Elementary School, and a convenient launch area for rafting and tubing adventures on the Animas River. Before the establishment of Durango, Animas City served as the primary settlement in this area. However, when Animas City opted not to host the railroad line to Silverton, Durango emerged and was founded in 1880. With the arrival of the railroad, Durango flourished and eventually Animas City was incorporated into Durango.
