Magna has historic streets, growing communities and commuting routes
Magna is a city on the west side of Salt Lake County, close to the Great Salt Lake and the Oquirrh Mountains. Living here, you’re a short drive from the Salt Lake City International Airport and downtown Salt Lake City, but you have a family-friendly atmosphere in Magna with a historic Main Street, growing neighborhoods and parks to explore. The city is within a 30-minute radius of several major employers, from the University of Utah to the Kennecott Copper Mine.
Some Magna residents can catch glimpses of the Oquirrh Mountains.
Magna's Main Street has staple businesses like the VFW Post 7398.

Magna has a mix of established and new homes
Curtis Mayberry is a Realtor with Mainland Realty who has sold homes in the area. He says that Magna has been growing as Salt Lake City expands. “The cool thing is there’s a lot of new development,” Mayberry says. “For newer homes, that’s a super big plus, but you also have established homes, older neighborhoods with a family feel.” The closer you get to Main Street, the more you’ll see bungalows and ranch-style homes built in the early 1900s. Some of the newest townhouses and detached homes are in neighborhoods like Arbor Ridge and Mahogany Ridge. Across Magna, homes have sold in the upper $300,000s to the upper $600,000s, and some of the older properties may need renovations. And while more than 75-percent of residents are homeowners, there are apartment complexes like Linden Hill and the occasional rental home.
Some of the newer townhomes in Magna have views of the Oquirrh Mountains.
Magna has single-family homes built in the 1900s as well as newer homes.

Students have options in the Granite School District
The highly rated Granite School District serves Magna. The city has multiple elementary schools that feed into Cyprus High School, which offers career & technical education pathways for students who want to focus on subjects ranging from architecture and construction to human services. The district offers school choice open enrollment, so families can apply for schools outside their assigned attendance zone. And when it comes to higher education in the area, anyone who works at or attends the University of Utah has a roughly 30-minute drive to campus.
Magna Elementary is one of the elementary options for families in Magna.
Cyprus High School is where many Magna students attend.

Commuting around Salt Lake by car or bus
Some people live close enough to walk or bike to spots like Pleasant Green Park or restaurants along Main Street, but you typically need to drive or catch a Utah Transit Authority bus to get around Salt Lake. “One of the biggest things is [that] it’s super close to the [Salt Lake City International Airport], which is good for people who travel a lot or work there,” Mayberry says. Mayberry also says people might work at the nearby Northrop Grumman aerospace manufacturing plant. State Route 201 leads to Interstate 15 on the drive to downtown Salt Lake City, and those going to the University of Utah can take Route 201 until it merges with Interstate 80.
State Route 201 is a major north-south highway in Magna.
The Kennecott Copper Mine near Magna is a major Salt Lake employer.

Visiting classic neighborhood businesses and some chains
When you need to pick up groceries, you have a Walmart, Ranchero Market and Smith’s along 3500 South. The other stores in Magna are mostly boutiques on Main Street, which range from Beardall’s Bakery to Colosimo’s Original Standard Market & Sausage Factory, which has been open since 1923. There are more options when it comes to dining out, from chain restaurants to locally owned restaurants like:
Brew Monkey Coffee House and Deli, which is open from early morning to early evening
Copper Miner Saloon, known for its karaoke and poker tournaments
Llaneros Restaurant, where you can try Venezuelan dishes and fresh fruit juice
Residents can easily access Great Salt Lake, the largest saline lake in the Western Hemisphere.
Magna summers are busy with celebrations
Residents look forward to July for the grand Magna 4th of July Celebration. The day starts with a flag-raising ceremony and cannonade before the 5K race begins. After the race, a full parade goes down Main Street, and the day ends with a bright fireworks display. August is another busy time because of the electronic music Das Energi Festival held at the Great Saltair venue along the Great Salt Lake.
