This is a list of cities in the United States by elevation. To be included on the list, a place needs to be an incorporated municipality (i.e. a city, town, or village) and it needs to be at an elevation of or higher. In the United States, settlements above 3,000 feet are found primarily on the High Plains, in the Rocky Mountains, and in Western North Carolina. However, since many from the aforementioned locations are not presently listed, this list should not be seen as exhaustive.

Note: Alma, Colorado is the highest when considering only areas with permanent residents. Using administrative boundaries as a measure, not settled areas, in 2006 Winter Park, Colorado became the highest incorporated town due to its annexation of a ski area.
