[cobirds] Do Dark-eyed Juncos Breed in Metro Denver?

I live in Littleton, east Jeffco at ~5600', in the middle of suburbia about two Peyton Manning throws from Southwest Plaza Mall.

The last two days I've had a juvenile Dark-eyed Junco coming to my yard foraging under the feeders. Do they breed this low down and east? I've always associated them with the foothills. I would think they would have to be breeding near here to see a youngster this early.
