Ninaview is an unincorporated community in Bent County, Colorado, United States. The U.S. Post Office at Las Animas (ZIP Code 81054) now serves Ninaview postal addresses.
A post office called Ninaview was established in 1915, and remained in operation until 1965. The community derives its name from one Nina Jones, the daughter of a local merchant. Donald Alan Johnston restored several buildings in the late 2000s and installed an amateur observatory on the site. Astronomy is favorable here due to low external light sources.
