General Information about Agate

Agate is an unincorporated town and U.S. Post Office in Elbert County, Colorado, United States. The ZIP Code of the Agate Post Office is 80101[3].
The town of Gebhard was established by the Union Pacific Railroad about 1876.[2] The Gebhard Post Office opened on April 8, 1881.[4] The name of the town was changed to Agate on April 24, 1882.[4] Although "Gebhard" was established by the UPRR, the town of Agate existed, by that name, as a locality used by local ranchers prior to the construction of the railroad. The town's name most probably comes from an "A-gate" - a wooden gate with an "A"-shaped cross-brace, but is sometimes claimed to be named for agate found in the area. The northeastern most community in Elbert County, Agate is a ranching community and the home of Agate School District 300, one of the smallest school districts in Colorado.
