Living in Spanish Fork: The Hub of South County
Spanish Fork is booming. Once a quiet farming community, it has transformed into the commercial and residential anchor of southern Utah County. With major retailers like Costco and a new hospital, it offers big-city amenities with a hometown feel. It is famous for hosting the Spanish Fork Fiesta Days Rodeo and for its diverse housing options, from historic homes to massive new master-planned communities.
The city is entering a new era of recreation with the grand opening of "FitCity Center" (the new Rec Center) for the 2026 season. This massive facility features indoor/outdoor pools and a lazy river, finally giving residents a year-round gathering spot. On the commercial front, the new Canyon Court development is under construction, with a premium Harmons Grocery Store set to open in 2026, adding a high-end option next to the existing Canyon Creek shops.
