I love the area, we're super close to a Costco and the mall so everything is a hop and a skip away for us. We moved into a new building so everything looks amazing. I like the area because its a diverse area and you have everything you need nearby.

My experience with West Valley City has been a pleasant experience I've been living in the neighborhood for about 6 years now. This is where my daughter is being brought up, as being a single mother it is very affordable living and everything is nearby the convenience stores supermarkets Etc. The one thing that I will change about the area is to have more street lights.
