A fortified technological enclave situated on Estate grounds, equipped with advanced workshops where electronics were repurposed into new devices and weapons. The colony housed research laboratories and power systems maintaining the community's technological operations… to a limited degree. Technocrats leader Margery Owlgate left the Colony and moved their headquarters to a different location, while leaving her daughter Amalie Owlgate in charge of the Colony.
In-game journal

Technocrats Colony is a defended Technocrats settlement on the grounds of The Estate. Its workshops turned salvaged electronics into fresh devices and weapons, and its labs and power equipment kept the faction's technology running, though only partly. The in-game map marks it as a safe zone. Margery Owlgate, who leads the Technocrats, has since moved the faction's headquarters elsewhere, and Amalie, Margery's daughter, now runs the Colony.

Electric Boxes are the container to look for, with 31 spots around the Colony, alongside frozen bodies, suitcases, toolboxes and 4 military crates. Loose Electric Parts, Gunpowder and a Compound Bow can be picked up nearby, and there is a workbench, a stove, a bed and a sleeping bag. Recipe notes here teach 7,62x39mm ammo, Components, Gunpowder and the Weapon Bench. Recordings to collect include Green-eyed Blizzard, To Chuck <3, Scavenger's Checklist and Helicopter's Pilot Confession. Eric Hirsch trades at the Colony.

Fast Travel: Church sits about 300 m away in a straight line. Renegade Camp, Candlelight Inn and House Camp are all close by. As a safe zone, the Colony is where the game offers a respawn after a death if it is the nearest one. Suit Up and The Guided Tour lead into The Estate and the Colony, and the main quest House Camp Flipper names it in an objective.
