according to Wikipedia..."Parker is a town in Douglas County, Colorado that in recent years has become a exurban part of the Denver Metropolitan Area. As of the 2000 census, the town population was 23,558. Its population as of 2005 is estimated at over 42,000, over 145 times its population of 285 when Parker incorporated in 1981.
The town's rapid growth in recent decades is often credited to Jim Nicholson, whose fourteen years spent developing the area earned him the town's first 'Cornerstone Award".
