Farmington sits just north of Centerville, between Centerville and Kaysville. My office is in Centerville, right next door, and I’ve had family live in Farmington for years, so I know it well. I’ve helped a number of clients buy and sell here.

The layout

Heading north from Salt Lake, you go through North Salt Lake, then Bountiful, Woods Cross and West Bountiful, then Centerville, and just north of Centerville you hit Farmington. This is where the valley narrows.

Farmington isn’t a long or wide city. I-15 runs north to south through the middle of it with good off-ramps to just about anywhere in town, and you can get from one end of Farmington to the other in about 10 minutes, give or take.

West of the freeway

West of I-15 is mostly newer development. When Station Park came in, builders followed, including Symphony Homes, Ivory Homes and Woodside Homes, to name a few. The area quickly became a hotspot for people moving to Utah, and it still is.

Station Park itself is an outdoor shopping center with a lot of different stores: Nike, Cabela’s, a Harmons grocery store, and bigger restaurant names like Chick-fil-A. There’s a big gym nearby, and a large sports complex and rec center just south of Station Park.

East of the freeway

The east side of Farmington is more established. The homes are older and the trees are bigger.

Lagoon

Lagoon is the only amusement park of any real size in Utah, and it’s right in the heart of Farmington, just east of the freeway. You can see it from I-15. It’s a big deal here, and some people will tell you the rides beat Disneyland.

It’s closed in the winter, but in the fall it runs Frightmares for Halloween on weekends. If you’re visiting Utah when it’s open, go. Then stop by Station Park for the shopping and food. Lagoon, Station Park and the heart of Farmington are all within about 10 minutes of each other.

Skiing

Utah’s license plates say “Greatest Snow on Earth,” so people always ask about skiing. From Farmington:

Snowbasin: about 30 minutes, the closest major resort
Nordic Valley: 40 to 45 minutes
Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons: Brighton, Snowbird and the rest are still within reach

Homes and prices

There’s housing here at a lot of price points:

Townhomes and condos: there are some townhomes and a few apartment complexes, and more townhomes and condos are going in close to Station Park
Average: I’d say you’re probably looking at $600,000 to $800,000, with some homes in the $500s
Top end: a lot of the newer homes west of the freeway are $1 million and up, and there are a good number of developments in the $1 million to $1.5 million range

If you’re thinking about moving to Utah, let’s talk about Farmington and whether it fits what you’re looking for.

Useful local reference: Farmington City parks and trails.
