Owns its water works. Has lights and sewers. Named for an early-day geological surveyor, F.V. Hayden. Incorporated in 1908. Hayden was a trading post in the early days, established in 1874. In 1878 it became the county seat of Routt County. A threatened Indian raid in 1879 caused the removal of the county records to Hahns Peak. First postoffice established in 1882, with Mrs. S. B. Reid as postmaster. The townsite was laid out in 1894 by W. and W. P. Walker. Has grade and high school and the town has more college graduates among its citizens than any other town of similar size in that part of the state. Pride of citizens centers in the Solandt Hospital, and its fine school."
