Greeley

City in northern Colorado, USA, at the point where the Cache de Poudre River flows into the South Platte River, 70 km/43 mi north of Denver; seat of Weld County; population (2000) 76,900. Greeley is situated in a belt of irrigated farmlands on the Colorado Piedmont, and is a distribution centre for the area; its main industries are meat packing and the processing of sugar beet. Other industries include the manufacture of photographic materials, fishing equipment, and chemicals.

The city was founded in 1870 as Union Colony, a cooperative agricultural enterprise, and was renamed after one of its founders, the publisher Horace Greeley, when it was incorporated in 1885.

Greeley is the seat of the University of Northern Colorado (1889).
