Littleton sits nine miles south of Denver as the county seat of Arapahoe County, carrying a genuine small-city identity that sets it apart from the sprawling suburbs surrounding it. Its roots trace back to the 1859 Pike's Peak Gold Rush, and that history is still legible along historic Main Street, where the Town Hall Arts Center, Depot Art Gallery, and Littleton Museum anchor a walkable downtown core. The city connects directly to Denver via two RTD light rail stations, making car-free commuting a real option rather than an afterthought.
Neighborhoods range from the tree-lined streets near Sterne and Ketring parks to the South Platte riverfront corridor, where Hudson Gardens and the Breckenridge Brewery Farmhouse draw residents outside year-round. Annual traditions like Western Welcome Week and the Candlelight Walk give the community a rhythm that feels earned rather than manufactured.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
