4 Arapahoe County facts As Colorado s first county, our history dates back to 1855 when Arapahoe County was part of the Kansas Territory. Arapahoe County was named for the Arapaho Indians, one of the larger tribes of plains Indians, who along with the Cheyenne, occupied Arapahoe County east of the foothills running into what is now western Kansas. In 1861, when Kansas was made a state, Colorado was made a territory with Arapahoe County as one of the 17 original counties. The original Arapahoe County was 30 miles wide and extended from Sheridan Boulevard, the present western boundary of Denver, Adams and Arapahoe counties to the Kansas border. This peculiar shape was due to the practice of giving counties with large amounts of plains territory at least some of the foothill territory where there was water for mining and irrigation. After a local election to determine the new county seat, voters selected Littleton, where it remains the county seat of Arapahoe County today. Arapahoe County spans 806 square miles and is a land of contrast. The western part of the County is mostly urban with residential, retail, office and industrial areas, while the eastern portion is relatively rural. Littleton, along with Sheridan, Englewood, Aurora, Bennett, Bow Mar, Centennial, Cherry Hills Village, Columbine Valley, Deer Trail, Foxfield, Glendale and Greenwood Village, make up the County s 13 incorporated cities. Arapahoe County offers a variety of attractive residential choices and a moderate cost of living. Residents enjoy excellent parks, greenbelts and trail systems, superior public services and an inviting quality of life. There are nine school districts within the County and more than 350 local improvement and service districts. School districts include Aurora, Bennett, Byers, Cherry Creek, Deer Trail, Englewood, Littleton, Sheridan and Strasburg. Arapahoe County is governed by the Board of County Commissioners. The Commissioners, along with the Assessor, Clerk and Recorder, Coroner, Sheriff, Treasurer and District Attorney are elected by voters to administer County services. 2 arapahoe county A to Z
