Crested Butte is 1 mile above the town of Crested Butte. The ski area is in Mt. Crested Butte. There is a free bus that runs between Mt. Crested Butte and Crested Butte in the summer and in the winter. Crested Butte South is a subdivision 10 minutes south of Crested Butte. Almont is a very small town 20 minutes south of Crested Butte. Gunnison is the county seat and home of Western State College. It is about 30-45 minutes south of Crested Butte. In any location it is advisable to have a car, although not necessary.
