The good and bad of living in South Jordan
OK so I'm a 54-year-old writer and The unemployment rate is 1.5%, which is pretty low. Household incomes average around $126,400 in South Jordan. Poverty rate is 1.9%, which is pretty low. With a population of 80,331, South Jordan is a smaller city. The suburbs are where most families end up. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.
Pros:
- Good schools
- Close to nature
- Low taxes
- Good healthcare facilities
- Plenty of shopping options
Cons:
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Mosquitoes and humidity
- Not enough green space

The weather takes some getting used to. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.
