Living in Eagle Mountain: Utah's New Frontier
Eagle Mountain is the destination for buyers seeking affordability and space. As a massive city by land area, it is divided into two main hubs: The Ranches (closer to Saratoga Springs) and City Center (further west near the rodeo grounds). With major investments from companies like Facebook (Meta) and Tyson, Eagle Mountain is transforming from a quiet outpost into a major economic player.
The city reached two historic milestones in late 2025. First, the Walmart Supercenter officially opened in August 2025, bringing major retail convenience directly to residents. Second, following the district split, the city is now the anchor of the newly formed Lake Mountain School District, ensuring local tax dollars stay in the community to fund new schools like the recently opened Sage Canyon Middle School.
