Beautiful View Of Salt Lake City!

Salt Lake City is fast becoming one of the industrial and technological Meccas of the Western United States. In addition to natural wonders like the Great Salt Lake, Salt Lake City offers shopping and dining comparable in many respects to Rodeo Drive or The Magnificent Mile, and one of the finest education systems in the entire country. These factors have combined to make Salt Lake City one of the fastest-growing cities in the nation, and have created a housing boom where other major cities are still feeling the bite of the fading Great Recession.

Another major draw to Salt Lake City is its climate, which is a blend of high desert and alpine conditions. The summer heat brings plenty of chances to go into the neighboring mountains and cool off with camping and outdoor recreation, while the winter snows draw avid skiers from all over the world. Because of Salt Lake City s striking winter conditions, it became the host city for the 2002 Winter Olympic Games. With all these things going for it, and so many Salt Lake City s population has swelled, leaving those seeking an apartment wondering if it s even possible to narrow their search to just one area.  SimplyApartments is a great resource to find the information needed to get control of the search.

Luckily, Salt Lake City s master plan is arranged on a numbered grid, making finding anything a city-dweller might need simple and efficient. Apartment complexes are generally placed just off the beaten bath, but still within easy walking or driving distance to shopping, entertainment, dining, work, and healthcare. Salt Lake City schools include public, private, and parochial education for a wide number of walks of life, and are routinely rated as some of the best in the country. In addition, seven different higher education institutions, including Brigham Young University, the University of Utah, and Westminster College, call Salt Lake City and its suburbs home.

The neighborhoods in Salt Lake City proper include The Avenues, Capitol Hill, and Sugar House. The Avenues comprises the area from Avenue A to U and from First Street to 18th. This area features blocks about half the size of a usual Salt Lake City block (five acres as opposed to ten), and notable buildings in this area include LDS Hospital, the Governor s Mansion, and the Cathedral of the Madeline. The businesses in this area are small and tend to cater to neighborhood residents, making this a quieter and more suburban feeling area.

Sugar House lies near downtown and the U of U, encompassing the area from 700 to 2000 East and 1300 South to 3300 South. The area was named because of a sugar mill that was built there but never became operational. However, Salt Lake City s first prison was built in Sugar House. Today, the area is known for its eclectic shopping, quiet atmosphere, and its old-time Main Street feel. A quarter century of urban renewal and reclamation has cut the crime rate down in this area, and Sugar House is home to some of the best middle and high schools in the city, including East High of High School Musical fame.

The Capitol Hill area is one of the best-known landmarks in Utah, including the Capitol Building and an area roughly defined by the Wasatch Foothills, City Creek, Heber s Bench, and The Marmalade District. This is the apartment epicenter of Salt Lake City, and features more single residents per capita than any other area of the City. While the area is largely dedicated to the business of state governance and the lifestyles of singles, there is still plenty for kids to do in Capitol Hill, and West High, touted as the best high school in Utah, resides in Capitol Hill. This is the highest-income area in Salt Lake on average.

Of course, Salt Lake is much more than just these three areas, encompassing some seven suburbs including Sandy, West Jordan, and Park City as a part of its metropolitan area. In all of these places, apartment living is relatively easy to find, and all these towns are reported to have at least some form of public transportation.
