-Westminster was incorporated in [[1957]], at which time it had 10,755 residents. Originally, the city was named ''Tri-City'' because it was the amalgamation of three cities: Westminster, Barber City, and Midway City. [[Midway City, California|Midway City]] ultimately turned down incorporation, leaving Barber City to be absorbed into the newly incorporated Westminster. The former Barber City was located in the western portion of the current City of Westminster.
