Shaw Heights
By Jessica Car · Updated April 2026
One of Westminster's oldest neighborhoods, originally settled during the Colorado Gold Rush era of 1858, now featuring a mix of pre-1960s homes through 1990s construction. Medium to large single-family homes (three to five bedrooms) at some of the city's most accessible price points. Close to the new Westminster Station for B Line commuter rail to Denver Union Station.
