Boulder, CO
Gunbarrel is a census-designated place (CDP) in Boulder County, Colorado, United States. The population was 9,263 at the 2010 census. Gunbarrel is a developed (built-up) area of Boulder County, but it is not an incorporated town or village. Gunbarrel locations may have postal addresses indicating Boulder, Niwot, or Longmont as the city.
The term Gunbarrel is also used colloquially to refer to a larger area, which includes parts of the city of Boulder and rural portions of Boulder County in addition to the CDP. However, this article is about the CDP specifically.
Gunbarrel is located at 40°3′56″N 105°11′15″W / 40.06556°N 105.1875°W / 40.06556; -105.1875 (40.065482, -105.187523). It is northeast of the city of Boulder proper, separated by a buffer area of private agricultural lands and publicly owned open space. The buffer areas provide over two miles (3 km) of separation over changing elevations. This reduces the impact of the Boulder Municipal Airport and the Boulder County Sheriff's Department facilities (including the county jail), which are located on the southern side of the buffer.
