Best hidden gems in Cottonwood Heights
Been meaning to ask this. Average temperature is around 53--F, so expect cold winters. Homes are going for about $641,900 on average. Household incomes average around $116,583 in Cottonwood Heights. Crime rate is something to consider -Cottonwood Heights sits at 158.0 per 100K. The median home value here is around $641,900, which is pretty steep. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.
Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Good job market
- Nice parks and trails
- Growing food scene
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Cold winters
- Homelessness issues downtown
- Not enough green space
Am I overthinking this? Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Property taxes are high but you get good services. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.
