Suburban neighborhood with city amenities
Redwood is a suburban neighborhood in West Valley City’s downtown. “The city is home to cultural and entertainment venues like the Maverik Center and Utah First Credit Union Amphitheater, where residents can attend concerts, sporting events, and other performances,” says Michael Wolters, a Realtor with Keller Williams - Salt Lake City and over 20 years of experience. The neighborhood is about 7 miles south of Salt Lake City, and residents can drive along Interstate 215 or take Utah Transit Authority buses for an easy commute. "It's a good area where people keep their houses and yards really tidy, and they're in the central part of the valley, so that means they have ease of getting around,” says Ruby Reece, a Realtor with Century 21 Everest, who has worked in the area for almost 10 years.

The average home value in Redwood is about $433,000, and most homes range between $350,000 and $550,000. Townhouses from the early 2000s and ramblers from the late 20th century are especially common.

A typical 3-bed, 2-bath townhouse goes for between $350,000 and $400,000 and includes features like open patios and two-car garages. Remodeled single-family ramblers start at $400,000 and can reach prices up to $700,000 for new construction versions. Home sizes in Redwood tend to be smaller than in other nearby neighborhoods, "but they're constructed well, and the yards are all roughly the same size," says Reece.

To the west of Interstate 215, Redwood residents can shop for groceries at Lucky and dine at local eateries like Fat Fish, a sushi restaurant, and Habibi Grill, a Pakistani restaurant.

How locals get around Redwood
Redwood is in a central location, so locals don’t have much trouble getting to where they need to go. "It's pretty convenient because you can go in all four directions pretty quickly," says Reece. "But a lot of people live in and visit that area, so the road system ends up being a little bit more crowded than it does elsewhere." Redwood is about 8 miles from Salt Lake City via Interstates 215 and 15, which takes between 12 and 24 minutes during rush hour. The Utah Transit Authority provides public transportation options, so locals can also get to Salt Lake City via buses and TRAX, a light rail system; there’s also Frontrunner, a commuter rail system extending from Provo to Ogden. CommonSpirit Holy Cross Hospital - Jordan Valley West is 4 miles west, and Salt Lake City International Airport is 7 miles north.
