I heard that population number from a speaker on the college campus. They may have been including the 25k students, and the un-incorporated county areas between us and other small towns within the same county, or even the populations of some of those other smaller towns. The whole place is pretty much one sprawling mass of suburbs that merge together from the smaller towns of Wellington, Bellevue, Laporte, Timnath, to Windsor, and the south-end of town has sort of merged with Loveland now too. Before the speech, I was guessing at least 150k, and not counting the college students.
