Living in Centerville: In the Middle of It All

Located between Bountiful and Farmington, Centerville offers the perfect mix of convenience and charm. It features a bustling commercial strip along Parrish Lane (Target, Walmart, Dining) while maintaining quiet, leafy neighborhoods against the mountains. It is a small, tight-knit community with a reputation for safety and stability.

The city is currently preparing for major changes. The extensive I-15 Expansion Project is scheduled to break ground in 2026, which will improve freeway access but impact the western edge of town. Meanwhile, the community is enjoying the newly opened "Epic" Playground at Community Park and looking forward to the grand reopening of the renovated Centerville Library in early 2026.


Centerville Market Snapshot (Late 2025)

Affordable charm with excellent schools.

Metric Current Stat What This Means for You
Median Sales Price $515,000 A great value. Significantly more affordable than the Bountiful Bench or Farmington.
Days on Market ~42 Days Balanced. Good homes sell quickly, but buyers have more leverage than in 2024.
Turnover Rate Low People tend to stay here for decades, meaning inventory is often tighter than neighboring cities.

Neighborhoods & Lifestyle

  • The Bench (East of Main): The most desirable zone. These homes sit high against the mountain, offering incredible sunset views and direct access to firebreak trails.
  • Community Park District: The heart of the city. Living here means you can walk to the new "Epic" playground, the elementary school, and the 4th of July parade route.
  • West Centerville: Known for its 1970s/80s brick ramblers. It offers more affordable starter homes with instant access to the Parrish Lane shopping district.

Frequently Asked Questions About Centerville

What is "Deuel Creek"?
The Deuel Creek Trail is a popular hiking spot that starts right in a residential neighborhood and leads to a waterfall in the canyon. It is a hidden gem for locals—family-friendly, shaded, and featuring fun log bridges.
How are the schools?
Centerville is served by Viewmont High School, which is shared with Bountiful. It is highly regarded for its academics and strong community support. The local elementary schools are also top-tier within the Davis School District.
What kind of homes are here?
Centerville has a distinct mix: you'll find sturdy 1970s/80s brick ramblers on the flatlands and larger custom homes on the eastern bench. It is a very stable market with low turnover because residents love the location.
What is happening with I-15?
A major widening project is scheduled to begin in 2026. It will expand the freeway and reshape the west side frontage road. If you are looking at homes on the far west side of town, we should check the updated impact maps together.
