Parker is a small, self-declared "town" in Douglas County, Colorado, a home rule municipality. It has an estimated population of 57,706 people according to a 2019 census, making it the 19th most populous municipality in Colorado.

The first inhabitants of the area were the ancient Plains Woodland people. The Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Utes traveled through the area in the 1800s. They were hunter-gatherers who established seasonal camps in the area to acquire food. Evidence of habitation beginning in the Archaic period more than 6,400 BC was found in Franktown Cave.

The settlement in the area was originally called Pine Grove. The name was changed to Parker in 1882. It was originally called "Parkers'" for the two Parker brothers, George and James, who were the largest landowners in the area. The apostrophe in the name was later dropped. The Denver and New Orleans Railroad Company completed the railroad route that serviced Denver, Colorado Springs, and Parker in that same year. To ensure that the railroad route came through the town's center, James Parker sold his right-of-way for $1, while his brother George sold his right-of-way to further bring the railroad into Parker station.

In 1884, James Parker donated more than three acres of his land for Parker Cemetery, which holds the graves of the town's early settlers. Upon his death in 1910, Parker, and his wife Mattie, who died in 1887, were also buried there. During the mid-1880s, gold was found at Newlin Gulch, attracting more businesses to the area, including a dry goods store, two general mercantile stores, a blacksmith shop, a barbershop, a livery stable, a creamery, hotel, church, and others.

The Parker City Land Company started developing a "modern western town" in the 1960s, but the housing projects were not completed due to financial shortfalls. The town's developer skipped town in 1971, and in 1980, it was completed by another builder. The town was incorporated in 1981, making Salisbury Parker's first mayor. There were only about 285 people in Parker in 1981, and by 2014, an estimated 48,000 people resided in the town.
