Developing downtown centered between Boulder and Denver
Until recently, there was no such thing as Downtown Westminster or “Downtown Westy,” as it is commonly known. “Downtown Westminster has really undergone some modernization,” says Joann Perito, an Avenues Unlimited broker with 26 years of experience selling in Colorado. “There are some things that still are from the old Westminster Mall, but most of that got knocked down and has been redone with apartments; it’s newer, trendy and there’s walkability.” Perito adds that residents love knowing, “We can go over to the Alamo, have dinner, have drinks, watch a movie; and all of this really close to US-36, which is the gateway to Boulder.”
Downtown Westminster has an Alamo Drafthouse and Cinema.
The Westminster Bell Tower is a local landmark that helps orient the locals.

City Center shops and nationally recognized restaurants
Shopping centers line the neighborhood edges, from box stores to local businesses and chains on the first level of new apartment complexes. Locals browse the shelves at retailers such as Ross and Ulta at Westminster City Center on the east side, while shoppers at Towne Center at Brookhill on the west side explore the racks at Burlington and stock up on home improvement supplies at Home Depot. Grocery shoppers find everyday items at H Mart and buy in bulk at Costco in the neighborhood’s center. A morning drive to Sweet Bloom connects residents with what Food & Wine magazine called the best coffee shop in Colorado in 2022. Next door, Tap & Burger also holds national recognition – not just for the restaurant's juicy burgers – but for the culinary director responsible for creating the menu, Top Chef alumna Carrie Baird. There is no need to decide between dinner and a movie for date nights, with local theater chain Alamo Drafthouse in the neighborhood’s southeastern corner.
Sweet Bloom Coffee Roasters was voted the best coffee shop in Colorado in 2022.
Tap & Burger is a great spot for lunch, or if you want to catch the game.

Westminster rentals to Wadsworth Estates
While construction slowed following the pandemic, new luxury housing options quickly joined the area's more established inventory. Units in the Townhomes in the Harlan community were the first completed and feature newbuild amenities coupled with city and mountain views from their rooftop terraces. “In Downtown Westminster, there’s a community called Trendwood, and because of the new Downtown Westminster, those values of that Trendwood exploded in the last three years – those normally were around $185,000, and now you’re seeing homes at $600,000 – it’s because people were like ‘Look where we get to live. We can go shopping, bowling and the Alamo is super close,’” Perito says. While late 1970s ranch-style homes list between $440,000 for a three-bedroom and $585,000 for a five-bedroom, early 2000s Contemporary Craftsman in Wadsworth Estates list between $740,000 and $1.1 million. Homeowners associations maintain the upkeep of community amenities like clubhouses in these newer developments, with monthly dues hovering between $115 and $150. Rentals comprise 65% of the neighborhood, with rent ranging roughly between $1,400 for a one-bedroom and $3,000 for a three-bedroom.

Acquiring wisdom in Westminster schools

Standley Lake students may challenge themselves academically and athletically by choosing from the 14 Advanced Placement courses and 21 varsity sports programs offered.

Recreation from castle playgrounds to Christopher Fields
Residents are within a 2-mile radius of recreation, from parks with trails to sports courts and fields. Across from the Towne Center at Brookhill, children climb and slide on Westglenn Park’s playset while parents watch on from the picnic pavilion. McFall Park sets the stage for playing pretend with its castle-themed playground. Walkers and bikers enjoy the warmer weather setting out on the park’s paved loop trail, seeking out the splash pad along with other parkgoers when temperatures peak. Just north of town, Westminster City Park draws softball and soccer players with the Christopher Fields, disc golf enthusiasts with an 18-hole course and locals looking for entertainment with annual events such as the Independence Day firework celebration. The park’s recreation center provides a welcome relief from Colorado’s low temperatures, with a pool, sauna and indoor fitness center.

Traditional fairways neighbors adventure golf
Contrasting the calm on the greens at The Greg Mastriona Golf Courses at Hyland Hills, the neighboring Adventure Golf & Raceway unleashes the inner kid with many opportunities for exploration. Mini golfers weave through the park’s 54 holes, avoiding water obstacles in the jungle as a volcano erupts a hole over. Competitors also find fun along Go-Kart tracks and up high on the park’s ropes course.
The Greg Mastriona Golf Courses at Hyland Hills has an 18-hole, 9-hole, and two par 3 courses.
Adventure Golf & Raceway is fun for people of all ages.
