What stands out in Douglas County

Data from Polco GPAL
Standouts compare Douglas County with communities in Colorado or of similar population size. Surprises are where the measured figure was unusually far from what Polco's model expected. Each fact gives its year; public data runs one to two years behind.

In 2024, Douglas County was more favorable than communities of similar population size on adults with a high school diploma.
