Not even half an hour south of Downtown Denver<\/a> lies the city of Littleton<\/a>. Now, this town is not just some suburban city, but a great place to live, work, visit, and more. So, if you\u2019re on the fence about moving to or around the Denver Metro<\/a>, here are four reasons to move to Littleton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Littleton is among the best small cities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a report by WalletHub<\/a>, Littleton has consistently placed among the top small cities in the United States for the past two years, with a particularly high score in quality of life. For starters, it provides a relatively safe place for families to live, with AreaVibes<\/a> showing Littleton\u2019s violent crime rate being 77% lower than the national average, and the city is overall 38% safer than the rest of the cities across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, you have a great mix of urban and outdoor life, with both Downtown Denver and the Rocky Mountains less than half an hour away, giving you access to big city life and the even bigger great outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Littleton is great for families<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building off point No. 1, Littleton is among the best cities to raise a family. Again citing a WalletHub report<\/a>, Littleton is among the best places to raise a family in Colorado due to its family life and fun ranks as well as scoring high in education, health, and safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One huge thing worth noting is the success of Littleton Public Schools<\/a>, boasting three high schools that have ranking among Newsweek\u2019s Top HIgh Schools in America, high school graduates bringing in more than $40 million in college scholarships annually, and high recognition for its security and safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Littleton is also great for retirees<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the city is great for the family, it has been called the best place in Colorado for retirees<\/a> by SmartAsset. The report shows that among the top cities in Colorado, Littleton has more than most doctors offices, recreation centers, and retirement centers per capita as well as a relatively low tax rate compared to the others. Above all else, Littleton scored far and away more on its recreation and social index with score of 48.84, giving retirees plenty of options to get out the house and enjoy life with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Littleton offers you a green life\u2014and a great commute<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With each passing year, more and more people see the value of an environmentally friendly way of life, and this is very apparent in Littleton. If keeping your life green friendly, you\u2019ll be happy to know that Littleton ranks among the most green cities in America according to the insurance website Insurify<\/a>. The website handed out the Greenest Cities Award based on average household carbon footprint from mileage information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly enough, Littleton is also Denver\u2019s best commuter town<\/a>, with a great commute time of roughly 20-30 minutes, not to mention all the great things we mentioned above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take the good with the not-so-good<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While this list is only a short representation of some of the great reasons to move to Littleton, it would be worth mentioning that all of these great parts come with a relatively high cost\u2014particularly in housing. According to BestPlaces.net, which ranks various costs of living, Littleton\u2019s overall cost of living score is 130.3, with the national average being 100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While you will see savings in areas such as health costs and utilities, housing is nearly double the national average. For instance, the median home cost in Littleton is $437,600 compared to the nation\u2019s $231,200. Thankfully, we have a solution to help with that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By using a Littleton storage facility, you can maximize the space in your home or apartment by renting a storage unit at a cheaper rate than buying a bigger house or renting a larger apartment. And it can help in more ways as well. Whether it\u2019s to help you move to the area or live there for the long term, click here<\/a> to learn more about how Littleton self storage can help.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
