Hey, Been living here since 2021. Household incomes average around $95,823 in American Fork. Average temperature is around 54--F, so expect cold winters. The unemployment rate is 2.4%, which is pretty low. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Worth the trade-offs?
