Centering on the Salt Lake City International Airport, Jordan Meadows sits less than five miles west of downtown Salt Lake City. Primarily an industrial neighborhood dotted with business that support the airport, it manages to provide a thriving cluster of residential, commercial, and retail options concentrated east of Interstate 215.
Residents choose the area for its low rent and home prices, surprisingly robust shopping and dining options, and -- perhaps most important -- its easy access to downtown, the city's public transportation system, and the airport.
