Town by town

The numbers behind each town

The kind of place, the home value, the drives that matter, elevation and snow. Every figure comes from the same data the City Finder uses.

How it works

Answer what matters. Skip the rest

Every question is optional, so pick only the ones you care about. Your list changes with each answer. Each town gets a plain label: strong match, good match, or worth a look.

Your answers

Do you want land?
What is the most you want to spend on a home?

Not sure yet? The affordability calculator can help you find a number.

What kind of place feels right?

Pick as many as you like.

What do you want to see from home?

Pick as many as you like.

How do you feel about snow?
How hot is too hot in July?
Do you need to drive to work?

Pick the place you drive to, and how long a drive is OK each way. Times are typical drives outside rush hour. Rush hour can take longer. Towns a little past your limit can still show, lower on the list.

How often do you fly?

What do you want close by?

Pick as many as you like.

Your towns

Every town is on the list, A to Z. Answer a question to sort them by fit.

      The finder sorts towns by the answers you give. It is a place to start, not advice. Drive times are typical, and prices change.

      Weather comes from NOAA 30-year averages, 1991 to 2020. Income and home values come from the Census, ACS 2020 to 2024. Drive times are typical drives outside rush hour.

      Partner agents outside Southern Utah. In Iron, Washington, Kane, Garfield, and Beaver counties I am your agent. Elsewhere in Utah, I connect you with a partner agent I trust in that area. If you buy or sell with an agent I refer, that agent's brokerage pays my brokerage a referral fee out of their commission. You are always free to choose any agent you wish.
      How my dual role works. I am licensed in both real estate and mortgage lending. On any single purchase I take one role only, never both at once, and every role is disclosed. You are always free to choose your own agent and your own lender. The full explanation is on How I Work.

      Room to spread out is not the same in every part of Utah. A big lot in one town may be a small yard in the next. Use it to see which towns have pages for acreage or horse property.

      How the land match works

      The land answer looks for a page on this site. A town scores full marks when it has a page for homes on acreage, or a page for horse property. A page for RV garages does not count.

      This page starts with a small town and the country picked as the kind of place. You can change those answers. With the starting answers, a town with no land page does not make the list. It can still show up if you add answers it fits. A town with no land page here can still have land for sale. To see country towns too, set the land question to No preference.

      When two towns fit the same, and no other answer sets them apart, the town names decide, from A to Z.

      Add what else matters

      Land often costs more near a big city. Add a budget to see which land towns it reaches. Add a drive to work too, if you need one. Skip any question you do not care about.

      Before you fall for a town

      Lot size, zoning, and animal rules differ by town and by parcel. Check with the city before you buy. On a town's card, tap Homes on acreage or Horse property to see what is for sale there today. Then tap About and The Local to learn what daily life there is like. For more, read the guides to buying land in Utah and to zoning for horses and livestock. If you want to talk it through, I am glad to help.
