It is important to consider the location of these neighborhoods for practical reasons but it is also important to consider what each neighborhood has to offer to residents.

The Avenues is a neighborhood which offers a great deal to residents. This neighborhood is quaint with a number or recently restored historic homes. Tax incentive programs are encouraging the restoration of this thriving neighborhood.

The Harvard-Yale neighborhood is close to a number of points of interest including the University of Utah, the hospital and downtown. The housing options range from one story bungalows to massive Tudor estates. Renting a room in this historic neighborhood is definitely a unique experience.

The Sugar House neighborhood was named for a sugar mill which was under construction when the neighborhood was established. However, a number of complications prevented the completion of the sugar mill and it was never completed but the neighborhood retained the name. This neighborhood is known for excellent shopping and a friendly atmosphere.
