Living in North Salt Lake: The Commuter's Dream

As the name suggests, North Salt Lake (NSL) borders Salt Lake City to the north. It offers the absolute shortest commute for anyone working downtown who wants to live in Davis County. The city is divided into two distinct worlds: the industrial/flat lower section (Foxboro) and the prestigious "Bench" area, which features the Eaglewood Golf Course and million-dollar homes with panoramic lake views.

The city is currently reinventing its downtown. The massive Hatch Park Redevelopment is actively expanding the park from 12 to 16 acres, creating a true "Town Center" gathering space that will open in phases through 2026. Simultaneously, the Foxboro Wetlands Park restoration is nearing completion (Early 2026), adding boardwalks and trails to the city's west side nature preserve.

Neighborhoods & Lifestyle

  • Eaglewood (The Bench): The luxury district. Nestled on the steep mountainside, homes here overlook the golf course and offer arguably the best sunset views in the entire region.
  • Foxboro (The Flats): The affordable, family-friendly zone west of I-15. It features newer construction, pocket parks, and the newly restored Wetlands Park.
  • Town Center: The area surrounding the new Hatch Park. With the redevelopment, this walkable district is becoming the civic heart of the city.

Frequently Asked Questions About North Salt Lake

What is the Eaglewood area?
This is the luxury district of NSL. Nestled on the steep mountainside, homes here overlook the Eaglewood Golf Course and offer some of the best sunset views over the Great Salt Lake in the entire region. It is quiet, secluded, and prestigious.
What is happening at Hatch Park?
The city is in the middle of a massive project to redesign and expand Hatch Park. The project (active through 2026) expands the park to 16 acres and adds new amenities, creating a true "Town Center" for residents.
Is it quiet?
It depends on where you live. The residential neighborhoods on the bench are very quiet and secluded, backing up to the mountains. However, the lower part of the city is industrial and busy with trucking/commerce, so location matters heavily here.
Are there trails?
Yes. The Wild Rose Trailhead park is a local favorite for mountain biking and hiking, offering steep trails and incredible vistas of the valley. It is a hidden gem for outdoor lovers on the bench.
