Top neighborhoods

Central City
What it’s like to live in Central City
Urban accessibility defines Central City, where this Salt Lake neighborhood sits perfectly positioned between downtown and the University of Utah. Rental options include apartments in smaller buildings and divided historic homes with character details unavailable in newer construction. While the area offers excellent access to both downtown employment and university facilities, parking can be challenging without a dedicated space included with your rental. Especially appealing to students and professionals seeking urban connectivity without downtown rental premiums who appreciate established neighborhoods with genuine character beyond purely functional housing alternatives.

Historic prestige with panoramic views distinguishes Capitol Hill, where this distinctive Salt Lake neighborhood surrounds the Utah State Capitol with impressive architecture from various eras. Rental options include apartments in divided historic properties with details like hardwood floors and decorative woodwork. While the area offers exceptional views of downtown and the Wasatch Front, the hillside terrain can make winter driving challenging during snow events despite the premium positioning. Ideal for professionals and government employees who value historic surroundings and scenic vistas who don't mind occasional winter driving challenges on steeper streets.
