South Fork is a statutory town in Rio Grande County, Colorado, United States. It lies at the confluence of the South Fork and Rio Grande rivers. The population was 510 at the 2020 census.
Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 2.4 square miles (6.2 km2), all land.
History
South Fork was once the site of timber milling operations.
South Fork was founded in 1882, by which date its location was already marked by the presence of a coaching post, dating from the construction of the railroad connection of the Rio Grande Western Railroad line to Creede, which had been built to support the Creede silver mine. It was only in 1992 that South Fork achieved independent statutory town status, making it the youngest statutory town in the state. Originally the principal economic activities involved forestry and mining, but in recent decades these have been overtaken in the employment statistics by tourism.
South Fork made Colorado headlines during the Summer of 2020 when its town board announced that solicitations for donations was unlawful within town limits. This was in response to a local farmer's market in which one of its vendors was asking people for donations to the Black Lives Matter movement and the NAACP.
Popular Culture
South Fork's Riverbend Resort was the filming location of fictional 'Kamp Komfort' in the 1983 hit movie National Lampoon's Vacation.
Demographics
South Fork has about 600 permanent residents, but a substantially larger summer population due to seasonal residents and visitors.
