Living in Taylorsville: Community & Convenience

Taylorsville is known for its quiet, established subdivisions and central convenience. Located in the middle of the valley, it offers mature trees, brick ramblers, and a strong sense of community. Home to Salt Lake Community College, it balances education, parks, and residential living.

The biggest news for commuters is the upcoming launch of the Mid-Valley Express (MVX). This new Bus Rapid Transit line is currently under construction along 4700 South and is on track for a Fall 2026 grand opening. It will provide high-speed, dedicated-lane connections to the TRAX system, making Taylorsville one of the most connected cities in the valley.

Frequently Asked Questions About Taylorsville

What is "Taylorsville Dayzz"?
It is the city's massive summer festival, famous for one of the best fireworks shows in the state. The dates are officially set for June 25–27, 2026. New for 2026: The 5K run will include a "Ruckers" category for the first time!
How is the commute?
Taylorsville is bordered by I-215 (east) and Bangerter Highway (west). This "double access" makes getting north to the airport or south to West Jordan incredibly easy. The new MVX Bus Line (opening late 2026) will further improve east-west travel on 4700 South.
Is Taylorsville affordable?
Generally, yes. With a median price around $480,000, you can often find solid brick homes on decent-sized lots for significantly less than the East Bench, making it great for first-time buyers who want space.
Where is the college?
The main Redwood Campus of Salt Lake Community College (SLCC) is located here. It brings energy and educational opportunities to the neighborhood, plus community amenities like the sprawling campus library and gardens.
