Westminster Gardens Westminster Gardens is a Life Plan Community set on a beautiful, nature-rich campus in Duarte, CA.

Set against the backdrop of the San Gabriel Mountains, our community is part of HumanGood, a nonprofit with 70+ years of experience in senior living. The residents of Westminster Gardens are energetic seniors from a broad mix of professional, cultural and ethnic backgrounds. Historically, many have been retired Presbyterian ministers and missionaries—people of faith who’ve worked in developing countries around the globe. Their collective experience brings an open-minded, accommodating spirit to this unique senior community where people celebrate their independence by embracing all that life has to offer.
