Arapahoe County
Arapahoe County is the state’s first and one of the largest counties in Colorado. The County spans 804 square miles with urban land in the western region and a relatively rural eastern portion.
The $1.67 billion T-REX Project added additional highway lanes, safety improvements, and new bridges to I-25. Additionally, Southeast Light Rail opened providing service from the south in Douglas County, through Arapahoe County, ending in either downtown Denver or Aurora.
The E-470 toll road runs along the eastern perimeter of the metro area, passes through Arapahoe County, and provides quick access to Denver International Airport. There are several transit-oriented developments (TOD) being developed along the Southeast Light Rail line.
Arapahoe County offers a variety of 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.
