OK so We have two kids and Poverty rate is 1.9%, which is pretty low. With a population of 80,331, South Jordan is a smaller city. The weather takes some getting used to. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. What would you do? The suburbs are where most families end up. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting.

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 2-bedroom. it's not perfect but it works for me. Compared to Houston it's pretty good.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem tough.
I've been here 7 years and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The thing nobody mentions is public transit. It's stable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the school system is legit. And if you're into skiing, this place is solid.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Maple Ridge side vs the Eastside side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
No regrets on my end..

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 1-bedroom. I have mixed feelings honestly. Compared to Raleigh it's underrated.
