The pulse of downtown Provo
The rugged, snow-crowned peaks of the Wasatch Range tower over the central downtown section of Provo, home of Brigham Young University. The Utah Valley city is known for being one of America’s most conservative metropolitan areas, but the college-aged population infuses the downtown with fresh energy. “It’s a young, hip kind of area. There are lots of good restaurants, karaoke bars, comedy bars,” says Karen Walker, property manager at The Huntington Apartments. “Everybody is very, very friendly here.”
Snow-draped Wasatch peaks rise above downtown Provo and Brigham Young University.
Downtown Provo offers a mix of vintage shops, bookstores, and artisan markets.

Cultural cuisine and community coffeehouses
The downtown restaurant scene represents a variety of cultures. At El Mexsal, diners sample pupusas and other Salvadoran specialties, and Black Sheep Café serves Navajo tacos on frybread. Tandoori chicken, lamb vindaloo and yogurt lassis are on the menu at Bombay House, an Indian restaurant in Academy Plaza. Bistro Provenance brings a taste of Paris to Provo with its open-air patio and urban chic atmosphere. Rugged Grounds coffeehouse is just a block from the train station and the perfect place to meet friends for coffee or kombucha. Locals will also find numerous nightlife options, from Heart & Seoul Karaoke to the Dry Bar Comedy Club. For the necessities, Smith’s grocery store has a convenient location on North Freedom Boulevard.

Bungalows on shaded streets
Most downtown Provo residents live in the apartment complexes alongside the business offices and hotels. Small single-story bungalows sit on pocket-sized lots on the handful of residential streets branching off from the central grid. Many homes date to the 1920s, with some newer multi-family units mixed in. Paved sidewalks stretch beneath rows of shady trees, making this section of the city extremely walkable. Even busier thoroughfares like University Avenue feature sidewalks and grassy tree-lined medians. Homes are currently priced from around $550,000 for a single-family home to $1 million for a large multi-family unit.
Newly renovated homes are common in the Downtown Provo neighborhood.

Make a splash at Pioneer Park
Pioneer Park sits along the neighborhood’s western edge, featuring a playground, splash pad and walking paths. It’s also the site of the Provo Farmers Market, held every Saturday from June through October. The North Park and Provo Recreation Center offer an indoor aquatic center, basketball courts, a fitness mezzanine and a skate park just a block north of downtown. Kids also enjoy indoor skating at nearby Peaks Ice Arena, home of the Salt Lake City 2002 Olympic Winter Games.
Trees line the walking paths at Pioneer Park, a family-friendly spot in west Provo.

A seat on the FrontRunner
Numerous public transit options make it easy for residents to get around Provo and the Utah Valley. “It’s close to transit, close to schools, close to the freeway,” Parker says. On the western side of University Avenue, bus stops are on almost every block. The Utah Transit Authority’s (UTA) FrontRunner commuter rail also stops here, making the 45-mile trip to Salt Lake City that much more straightforward. There’s also a station for the California Zephyr, an Amtrak train that runs between Chicago and the San Francisco Bay Area. Folks commuting to Orem can expect the 5-mile drive to take about 15 minutes.
UTA’s FrontRunner connects downtown Provo to Salt Lake City via commuter rail.

Crime
Downtown residents can walk to the post office, Social Security office and the Utah County Passport & Marriage Office. There’s also an Enterprise Rent-A-Car location on University Avenue. With so many public transportation options available, it’s entirely feasible for locals to get by without owning a car. “A lot of residents work in the downtown area or on campuses,” Parker says.
Making the grade at Provo Peaks
Young students start at Provo Peaks Elementary School and Dixon Middle School, both of which get a B-minus from Niche. Provo High School is next and gets a B-plus. The elementary and middle schools are within a few blocks of downtown, but the high school is farther west toward the lake. Though Brigham Young University’s campus buildings are north of downtown, the tempo of student life reverberates throughout the city.

Dixon Middle School serves students from grades 7-8 in central Provo.
