• This Colorado town is among top U.S. cities for ‘where a real-life Hallmark holiday story is most likely to unfold' (canoncitydailyrecord.com) — Littleton just ranked first in Colorado and ninth nationwide for “Hallmark holiday” charm, thanks to its walkable Main Street, small businesses, and light December snowfall. A new analysis pegs the town’s odds of a real-life Hallmark-style story at 3.3%, highlighting its festive storefronts and close-knit community feel. It’s more data-driven fun than serious science, but flattering for Littleton.

• The hidden housing crisis for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (littletonindependent.net) — A new Disability Innovation Hub in downtown Littleton is helping residents with disabilities connect to therapists, services, and each other amid a growing statewide housing and caregiver crisis. Nearby Trailhead Community in unincorporated Jefferson County showcases a neuroinclusive housing model, but long waitlists and recent Medicaid-related caregiver pay cuts highlight how demand still far outstrips available support.
