Westminster, Colorado is a northwest suburb of Denver, Colorado. The discovery of gold first brought settlers to the area, many of whom decided to stay because the Homestead Act of 1862 encouraged staying rather than moving on to California. In July 2006, Money magazine ranked Westminster as the 24th best place to live in the US.
According to City data.com, the population of Westminster in 2017 was 112,8112; the median household income was $64,214 and the median price of a home or condo was $341,200.
Westminster has a lot to offer its citizens. Approximately 150 miles of trails wind through open space and parks--50 different trail systems in all (regional trails, park loops, minor trails, etc). Westminster has magnificent views and wildlife corridors.
Westminster is creating an amazing downtown area: Downtown Westminster, which is slated to be a cultural and economic hub for the community. A commuter rail station for the B-line, which currently runs from Denver Union Station to Westminster, is esaily accessible. The infrastructure of the area is designed to accommodate pedestrian and bicycle traffic. Retail will be abundant with a focus on unique and local products.
Westminster has two distinct buildings that catch the eye--Westminster Castle and the Bell Tower. The Westminster Castle was built in the 1890's with the intent of making it a Presbyterian University, a "Princeton of the West." It was short lived as a university and today it is home to the Belleview Christian Schools and KPOF AM91 Radio. The Bell Tower (14 stories) was originally outside of City Hall was topped with a pyramid shaped steel mesh structure--a nod to the symbolic ties to Big Ben in Westminster, England. City Hall has since been moved, but the Bell Tower remains.
Westminster offers many city recreation centers such as City Park Recreation Center, Swim and Fitness Center, The MAC (an active adults center), West View Recreation Center, Westminster Sports Center, and Countryside Pool .
For the dog lovers, Westminster has several dog parks: Westminster Hills Dog Park, Big Dry Creek Dog Park, and Little Dry Creek Dog Park.
Wesminster offers a plethora of shopping opportunities: The Westminster Promenade hosts many shops, restaurants, a Westin Hotel, and a cinema. The Shops at Walnut Creek is a shopping center with many known shops and eateries. And The Orchard Town Center is located in a vibrant outdoor setting just off of I-25 and 144th Ave. Over 90 specialty retailers are homed here along with a great dining selection and outdoor entertainment options. From warm fireplace seating in the winter, to children's play areas and a splash pad in the summer, this shopping center has much to offer.
Children love the Butterfly Pavilion which is basically a zoo for butterflies and insects. It is also a popular wedding venue. At Halloween The Frightmare Compound is a popular destination. This haunted attraction has been in service since 1983 and claims to be the scariest haunted house in the state. Westminster City Park offers 205 acres of opportunities for fun and fitness. It has facilities for basketball, soccer, softball, a skate parkand even an 18 hole disc golf area!
Standley Lake Regional Park is a favorite attraction for nature lovers! the lake is considered to be Westminster's largest body of water (more than a thousand acres of surface area). Camping, hiking, wildlife viewing, and bicycling are allowed as well as fishing and boating (by permit). Boating can include paddle boarding, rafting, canoeing, etc. There is a Nature Center on the premises and an eagle cam that catches the activities of the local nesting eagles.
