Wiggins, Colorado

Wiggins is a statutory town in Morgan County, Colorado, United States.

Around 1900, Corona was renamed in honor of Oliver P. Wiggins,[7] who had served as a guide and scout for Captain John C. Frémont on some of his explorations through northern Colorado in the 1840s and who had accompanied Kit Carson for 12 years on his expeditions.

Wiggins is in western Morgan County on the south side of Interstate 76, which leads east 15 miles (24 km) to Fort Morgan, the county seat, and southwest 64 miles (103 km) to Denver.

U.S. Route 34 splits off from I-76 just north of the town, leading northwest 38 miles (61 km) to Greeley.

17.0% of all households were made up of individuals, and 7.2% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.
