Homes for sale in Herriman, Utah

Frequently asked questions

Is Herriman, Utah a good place to live?

Yes — Herriman is the fastest-growing city in Salt Lake County and one of the smartest buys on the south end of the valley. You get new construction, master-planned communities like Blackridge and Rosecrest with parks and pools, Jordan School District (Herriman High opened in 2019 with modern facilities), and direct access to Butterfield Canyon and the Oquirrh foothills. The median price is around $550K and homes move in about 18 days. Trade-offs: a 30-35 minute commute to Salt Lake, and retail that's still growing.

Is Herriman, Utah safe?

Herriman is generally considered a safe, family-oriented city — it's new, residential, and full of young families. There's some property crime, and construction zones can attract theft, but violent crime is low. Herriman has its own police department, formed in 2018, and I'd point you to their published data for specifics. The families I've placed in Blackridge and Rosecrest tell me their kids walk to school and play at the splash pads without worry. Safety is rarely the question that keeps buyers from choosing Herriman.

Is Herriman, Utah affordable?

Herriman is one of the strongest value propositions in Salt Lake County. The median is around $550K. Townhomes start in the mid-$300s, family homes in Blackridge and Rosecrest run $450K-$650K, and newer construction in Anthem and Mountain View ranges from $500K-$800K. A brand-new 4-5 bedroom home with a 2-car garage under $600K is still possible — a price that barely buys a condo on the east side. HOA fees in the master-planned communities are worth budgeting for. Everyday costs are typical for the valley.

Is Herriman, Utah Mormon?

Herriman is in Salt Lake County, which is more religiously mixed than Utah County, though Latter-day Saints are the largest group and Herriman — a young, family-heavy city — skews more LDS than Salt Lake City proper. The city's rapid growth has brought in buyers from across Utah and out of state, so it's more mixed than it was a decade ago. I work with buyers of every faith and background, and the neighborhoods here are welcoming. Ask me if you want a candid read on any specific community.

What is Herriman, Utah known for?

Herriman is known for its growth — from open farmland to one of the fastest-growing cities in Utah in about a decade — and for Blackridge Reservoir, the swimming and paddleboarding spot that draws people from across the valley every summer. It's known for Butterfield Canyon's hiking and OHV access into the Oquirrh Mountains, the Herriman Hills trails, Herriman Towne Center, and the Mountain View Corridor. Among agents, it's known as the place where buyers are surprised by how much new home their budget gets.

How far is Herriman from Salt Lake City?

Herriman is about 25 miles southwest of downtown Salt Lake City — roughly 30 to 35 minutes by car via Bangerter Highway or the Mountain View Corridor to I-15, longer at rush hour. The Lehi tech corridor is about 25 minutes. There's no TRAX station in Herriman; the closest is the Red Line in Daybreak (South Jordan), about 10 minutes away. Salt Lake International Airport is around 35 to 40 minutes. The Mountain View Corridor has made the drive meaningfully easier than it was a few years ago.

Herriman vs. Riverton — which is better?

Riverton is the more established neighbor — older homes with larger lots, mature trees, Old Towne Riverton's character, and a median around $600K. Herriman is newer, further west against the Oquirrhs, with master-planned communities and a median around $550K. Both are in Jordan School District with similar commutes. If you want a brand-new home with community amenities and more square footage per dollar, Herriman. If you want an established neighborhood with a real yard and mature landscaping, Riverton. I show both back to back often.

What are the best neighborhoods in Herriman?

Blackridge is well-established with multiple parks, a pool, and homes from townhomes to larger single-family — plus the reservoir. Rosecrest is one of the largest and most popular family communities with excellent amenities. Anthem is newer with modern floor plans and competitive pricing. Mountain View on the upper bench has panoramic valley views. South Hills has larger lots and a quieter setting closer to the mountains. Herriman Towne Center is the mixed-use civic hub.
