How much do you pay for rent in Cottonwood Heights?
Hey folks, Been living here since 2022. The median home value here is around $641,900, which is pretty steep. You can expect to pay around $1,697 for rent here. With a population of 32,984, Cottonwood Heights is a smaller city. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The food scene here is surprisingly good. What do you all think? Appreciate any input. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The city has invested a lot in new development.

I've lived in Lakewood for about 7 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it's not perfect but it works for me. When I first moved here from Houston, I was surprised by traffic. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- Good airport with direct flights
- The walkability scene is average
The downsides:
- Traffic during rush hour is rough
- Homeless population growing downtown
Overall I'd rate it 5/10 for families. No regrets on my end..

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, it's not perfect but it works for me. It's not for everyone but it works for us..
