*Area, Population and Density rankings refer to Westminster’s relative position among Vermont’s 255 civic entities (9 cities, 242 towns, 4 gores and grants). Complete rankings are here.

Although it is not certain, it seems likely that Benning Wentworth named this town in the Grants for Westminster, England, now part of London. In Wentworth’s time Westminster was a separate town, adjacent to Putney and Fulham (as Westminster, Vermont is near Putney and Dummerston, originally Fullum).

Utilities

Notes about utilities:

  • One electric or phone company indicates that company serves the entire town. More than one of either indicates each serves different areas of town.
  • A listed cable company MIGHT mean the entire town is covered, but not necessarily. More than one listed indicates each serves different areas of town.
  • Unless your area is one served by Vermont’s only gas utility, your only option is bottled gas (any dealer).
