About This Community

The moment you set foot on our 32-acre campus you’ll see why Westminster Gardens earned its name. Showcasing the area’s scenic natural beauty, our community boasts more than 2,000 rosebushes along landscaped walking paths that meander through the hundreds of fruit trees growing on our property. But don’t let our semi-rural feel fool you; we are centrally located on historic Route 66 with easy access to all of Los Angeles County.

Westminster Gardens is owned and managed by HumanGood, a nonprofit public benefit corporation serving older adults since 1949.

Featured Amenities

Offering a variety of living options to help you balance both your budget and your desired lifestyle, our accommodations come in a selection of studio, suite, one-bedroom and two-bedroom layouts. All homes are pet friendly and feature ample storage space, carpet and private bathrooms. Select units also include full kitchens and in-unit laundry facilities.

When not relaxing in the privacy of your home, mingle with your neighbors at one of our many scheduled community activities and events. Historically, many of our residents have been retired Presbyterian ministers and missionaries, but now we are home to a diverse mix of seniors from all professions, cultures and faiths.

Available Services

Westminster Gardens offers a range of senior living options from independent living to assisted living to Alzheimer’s and dementia care. Our professional staff is available to assist residents as needed with life’s daily activities, such as dressing, bathing and grooming, as well as provide specialized memory care, such as mood-enhancing therapy or skill-building activities.

For added comfort and convenience, we also take care of the landscaping, facility maintenance, scheduled local transportation and meal service. Our in-house chefs excel at turning healthy ingredients into tasty cuisine, and you are welcome to join us for all three meals a day or choose a more flexible meal plan.

At Westminster Gardens, we blend the best of both worlds: a lush, natural woodland within easy driving distance of some of the world’s finest cultural attractions.

Westminster Gardens is set on a very large property and has all different levels of care. They seemed very well organized. They have motion detectors in the bathrooms for independent living. So if nothing gets set off, they'll check and make sure you're okay. It's a very spread-out ground, so you can walk if you want. If you can't walk, you'd want to have a scooter or a golf cart. They have parking for both of those. The units are nice. They are older, but they update them. The residents are very pleasant. The grounds are very nice. We went into one apartment that was vacant at the time that they were preparing for a new resident. We went into the dining room, and the food looked great. The people seemed happy. They have a main house that has a beautiful library in it. The staff gave us some directions, contacted me multiple times, and was very knowledgeable. They also have a gym and a nice guesthouse if you have visitors that want to stay over.

I have chosen Westminster Gardens. It has all the amenities we are looking for. We don't want to do apartment living, and they have cottages. We visited it before; we did an in-person tour. I think the staff members were excellent. We saw the dining room but everything was closed because of COVID now. We haven't tried the food. They have individual cottages. This is basically what we're looking for. It's very nice and very adequate. They have parking for the car and everything is gated. Right now, it's at the top of the list of where we would like to go.

Westminster Gardens had a standalone home, but they had no openings. They had a big building that had apartments, but they had one available on the end as though it was a separate unit and it had an outdoor patio, so it had a front door and a back door. They also required a fairly large deposit upfront. The staff was lovely. It's an excellent facility.

I thought Westminster Gardens was very good, and I'm going to be moving there soon. The people are friendly, I felt like they really care about people, and I just think it's a really good facility. They fixing the apartment according to my specifications. It's very nice, it looks very pleasant, and they've been very helpful that way. The sales people have been very nice. I had lunch there, and the food was satisfactory.
