Welcome to Colfax County 

Tucked away in northeastern New Mexico, Colfax County is rich with history that stretches back to the days of the Old West. This region has long been a meeting place of cultures, from Native American tribes to Spanish explorers and early settlers. Today, we honor that heritage through historic landmarks and local cultural events that keep our past alive, all while celebrating the warmth and hospitality that define us today.
