About FRCOX
Franklin Colorado Tax-Free Income Fund Class A1 is a municipal bond mutual fund designed to generate a high level of income exempt from both federal and Colorado state personal income taxes.

Its portfolio consists of a broad base of holdings, allocating significant assets to sectors such as utilities, transportation, healthcare, and convention facilities through bonds like those issued by the Regional Transportation District and Denver City & County Board of Water Commissioners. By focusing on long-duration, investment-grade municipal securities, this fund seeks to meet the income needs of Colorado residents, particularly those in higher tax brackets.
