Ready to Make Your Move?If you’re relocating to Colorado or even looking for a new place to call home in Denver Metro, be sure to give homes for sale in Westminster a serious look. About ten miles from downtown, it’s midway between Denver and Boulder, depending on which of the many roads you choose.

With the light rail system about to connect most of the metro area, however, urban-style dwelling will soon be part of the mix. Construction has started at Westminster Center, located near the bus and light rail transportation hub at Sheridan and Highway 36. It will be a bike- and pedestrian-friendly, mixed use development that promises to rival places downtown.
