Living in Eagle Mountain, Utah: Why More Buyers Are Choosing This Growing Community

When people ask me, “Mike, where’s the best place to buy a home in Utah County if I want more home for the money and the best place to live?” I often point them to Eagle Mountain and Saratoga Springs.

• Affordable Homes with Space to Grow
Eagle Mountain is known for beautiful new neighborhoods with large backyards, basements, and modern layouts. For the price of a starter home in Lehi, Highland, American Fork, Orem, Pleasant Grove, and anywhere in Salt Lake, you can often buy a bigger, newer home in Eagle Mountain.
• Schools and Family Life
With new schools opening regularly in the Alpine School District, parents love that Eagle Mountain is planning ahead for growth. Kids can walk or bike to school, and you’ll find plenty of sports leagues, community programs, and family-friendly events.
• Parks, Trails, and Adventure
If you love the outdoors, Eagle Mountain is paradise. Miles of trails for hiking and biking weave through the foothills, and you’re only a short drive from Utah Lake, American Fork Canyon, and world-class skiing in the Wasatch Mountains.
• Shopping and Convenience
While Eagle Mountain feels peaceful and open, you’re only minutes from Saratoga Springs and Lehi, where you’ll find Costco, restaurants, and everything else you need. The city itself is adding new shops, groceries, and entertainment every year.
