According to a recent study by LendEDU, the City of Castle Pines ranks as one of the top ten safest cities in Colorado.

Using licensed data, each city's crime risk index was rated against state and national averages. Based on the crime index in Castle Pines, the City has been identified as the 9th safest city in the state.

For the third year in a row, the PineRidge Homeowners Association in Castle Pines has hired Goat Green, LLC and their herd of goats to help work the fire adaptive community. On June 12, 300 goats arrived in Castle Pines to eat through oak groves in the open space areas of three homeowners associations: PineRidge, Buffalo Ridge, and The Retreat. The goal of using goats in fire mitigation is to reduce vertical and horizontal continuity of vegetation to prevent fire from spreading quickly and from getting into trees where it is harder to put out.
