It ranked as the 24th Best Place to Live in the United States in July of 2006.

Westminster strives to deliver exceptional value and quality of life to its over 100,000 citizens and 3,000 businesses. For this reason, many new people and businesses choose to make Westminster their home every year.

HISTORY

In 1858, the discovery of gold along Little Dry Creek attracted nation-wide attention to the area that would later be known as Westminster. The guarantee of wealth and the Land Act of 1862 inspired many settlers to travel west and make Colorado their home, rather than California. Before the area was settled, there was an abundance of wildlife such as antelope and buffalo that made this area their home. It's also proven that the Arapahoe Indians made their home near the Crown Point region.

The region has undergone many name changes. In 1870, the area was known as DeSpain Junction, after the first pioneer, Pleasant DeSpain, who constructed his home in the area. In 1885, it was renamed to Harris Park, after the real estate developer C.J. Harris who came and started buying up land. In 1891, construction began on the the Westminster Castle, which would later be known as the Princeton of the West. The town incorporated in 1911, and the area was renamed one last time to Westminster, as an homage to Westminster University.

DEDICATION TO OPEN SPACES

Conserving open spaces all over the city has been a matter of great importance in Westminster for over twenty years. Ever since voters first accepted a sales tax precisely set aside to obtain and sustain open space in 1985, Westminster has conserved over 2,500 acres in all areas within its borders. That amounts to 4 square miles of natural open space, which is roughly 12% of the city's land area. Should public and private parks and golf courses be counted in the total, then almost one third of the city is conserved as "green space," which differentiates Westminster from other neighborhoods in the Denver Metro Area. One of the remarkable features offered to the residents of Westminster is the city's trail system. The Big Dry Creek Trail is one of the gems of the open space system, protruding just about ten miles from the eastern border of the city to Standley Lake, featuring trails for running, bicycling and wildlife watching. It's every bit of a wonderful experience for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers.
