About us
Arapahoe County is Colorado's first county and the third largest in the state with a population of more than 618,000. The County has 13 incorporated communities, including Aurora, Bennett, Bow Mar, Centennial, Cherry Hills Village, Columbine Valley, Deer Trail, Englewood, Foxfield, Glendale, Greenwood Village, Littleton, and Sheridan. Arapahoe County was named for the Arapaho Indians, who along with the Cheyenne Indians, occupied most of Colorado when it was only a territory. An elected, five-member Board of County Commissioners serves as the administrative and policy‐making body. Voters also elect the County Assessor, Clerk and Recorder, Coroner, District Attorney, Sheriff and Treasurer. Arapahoe County has 2,011 employees and a $339.3 million budget. The County has one of the lowest mill levies of counties on Colorado's Front Range. The County Administration Building is located at 5334 S. Prince Street in Littleton, Colorado, but we offer locations throughout Arapahoe County.

Are you familiar with La Plaza Colorado? The owners recently provided a tour of the Aurora marketplace to Commissioner Carrie Warren-Gully, CU Regent Ilana Spiegel, and staff from Rep. Jason Crow’s office, Arapahoe County Public Health, CSU Extension, and Arapahoe/Douglas Works! They discussed development plans, workforce development support, and opportunities for public and private partnerships. La Plaza Colorado is home to dozens of businesses, mostly Hispanic-owned. At 100,000 square feet, the shopping center features a grocery store, market stalls, and 24 food-hall kitchens, making it the largest Hispanic food hall in the U.S., according to Visit Aurora. Our public health department has worked closely with La Plaza Colorado and its vendors to perform restaurant and food truck inspections to help the businesses succeed!
