== Fun facts ==
* Politically, Baca County is overwhelmingly Republican in most elections.
* Campo is a name derived from Spanish meaning "field".
* The Dust Bowl arrived in the 1930s, with Baca County being one of the hardest hit areas. This prompted soil conservation efforts by the federal government. Part of this effort was the purchase of cultivated land by the government in order to return it to grassland. Today the U.S. Forest Service supervises 220,000 acres of Comanche National Grassland which was purchased in the 1930s. These areas include Carizzo Creek and Picture Canyon. The Colorado Division of Wildlife maintains the recreational areas at Two Buttes Lake and Turk's Pond.
* The Baca County Electric Reservation is located east of Campo.
* Springfield has little in the way of amenities to offer. All it has is dollar stores, electric showers, a Subway, a sports complex, a few local restaurants and businesses, a little bit of public battle fields, a few auto parts places, a few motels, Trails End, LongHorn Steakhouse, Beeps Burgers, Kirk's Kitchen, Main Street Bistro, Baca County Foods, a public swimming pool, and not much else.
