A mid-sized city with a small-town community

Midvale has its own urban identity separate from Salt Lake City despite being only 11 miles away; "The Sandlot" and "The Stand" were filmed here to showcase the neighborhood’s all-American essence. “Midvale is a passionate blue-collar community, with its roots coming from the mining and farming industries of the late 1800s and early 1900s,” says Michael Wolters, a Realtor with Keller Williams - Salt Lake City and over 20 years of experience. “Multiple generations of families continue to call Midvale home.” There’s a prominent artistic presence, too; walking down Main Street, locals will be greeted by more than 20 murals in the area and an abundance of retail and dining options. The community offers all the space of a suburban lifestyle with the charm of city life. “Midvale transcends being merely a place of residence,” says Wolters. “It’s a tightly-knit community where neighbors become friends, and the diversity of cultures and backgrounds fosters an inclusive and inviting atmosphere.”

Finding the right home in Midvale

“Midvale is a very affordable area of Salt Lake County, where the average home price is $516,000, versus the Salt Lake County average of $602,000,” says Wolters. Homes typically range between $375,000 to $625,000 and residences can vary greatly depending on the area in Midvale; homes near Main Street are usually two- or three-bed condos or townhouses from the late 20th century or newer and start around $300,000. Further east, residential subdivisions feature late-to-mid-century ramblers or Craftsman-style homes with sidewalk-lined streets and well-kept front lawns, typically starting around $500,000 for a four- or five-bed home.
