What are the best neighborhoods in Westminster?

As Shiloh mentioned, Wesminster is fairly large and varies quite well in terms of neighborhoods. Finding your "neighborhood fit" truly depends on what you are looking for. Westminster has done an incredible job with preserving open space and its trail systems while allowing for sustainable growth. An area to keep your eye on would have to be from 88th ave up to 112th and in between Wadsworth and Sheridan blvd. I believe this area is gong to realize some substantial gains in the very near future with some very exciting developments. With the demolition of the old Westminster mall nearly complete, the city of Westminster is projecting the possibility of breaking ground in the spring of 2013. The "new mall" will be comprised of a high density urban village with retail, office space and residential uses. And even though the Fastracks light rail system has become a huge disappointment for many of us in the Northwest area, current plans are to build the light rail system ending close to 104th (Church ranch) and highway 36. One neighborhood to really focus on is Hyland Village which sits close to 97th and Sheridan. It has yet to be developed (sans 4 single family homes and a cluster of beautiful townhomes) as the original builder experienced many of the issues and heartaches that were felt when the housing bubble burst. Rumors are rampant that a new (and unnamed) developer is getting close to starting to build again. The original plans for Hyland Village were for a mixed use area with condos, town homes and retail. It appears that the city is going to stick with most of its original intended use. This neighborhood is surrounded by other vibrant subdivisions, a nice golf course (Hyland Hills), and easy access to Boulder (12 minutes) and Denver (15 minutes) as Highway 36 is just minutes away. It is hard to beat!
