Herriman Utah Homes for Sale

Herriman is the newer family-suburb anchor of southwest Salt Lake County — population approximately 58,000 (2024 U.S. Census, growing from about 21,000 in 2010 — one of Utah's fastest-growing cities by percentage). The city stretches from the Oquirrh Mountains foothills on the west to Bangerter Highway on the east, sandwiched between Riverton to the north and Bluffdale to the south. Where South Jordan reads as the Daybreak master-planned anchor and West Jordan reads as the value-suburb anchor, Herriman reads as the newer family-suburb growth city — the place buyers move to for newer construction at scale, larger lots than the inner valley, and Jordan School District schools.

The city's identity is shaped by rapid growth, newer master-planned communities (Rosecrest, Mountain Ridge, Hidden Oaks), Jordan School District schools (Herriman High School and Mountain Ridge High School are the in-city high schools), and the dramatic Oquirrh Mountains as the western backdrop. The city is one of the youngest suburbs in the metro by average resident age, reflecting heavy in-migration of families.

Why Buyers Choose Herriman, Utah

• Newer construction at scale. Most of Herriman's housing stock is post-2000, with continued buildout in the Rosecrest, Mountain Ridge, Hidden Oaks, Kings Canyon, and Capitol Reef planned communities. Browse Herriman new construction for current builds.
• Jordan School District schools. Herriman High School (the Mustangs) and Mountain Ridge High School (the Sentinels) are the city's two in-city high schools, both with strong AP and athletic programs.
• Family-suburb amenity density. Herriman has invested heavily in city parks, recreation, the Crane Park amphitheater, and family-oriented community programming.
• Larger lots than inner valley. Many Herriman neighborhoods offer larger lot sizes than the inner Salt Lake County suburbs, supporting buyers wanting backyard space.
• Accessible newer-suburb pricing. Herriman's median sale price runs meaningfully below Sandy, Holladay, and Cottonwood Heights for comparable-size inventory.
• Bangerter Highway access. Direct corridor north to Salt Lake City via I-15 (about 25-35 minutes) and south to the Silicon Slopes corridor in Lehi (15-20 minutes).

Growth and Future Outlook

Herriman continues to grow rapidly through new-construction buildout in the major planned communities. Per the Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute, the Wasatch Front is projected to add ~600,000 residents through 2050, with southwest Salt Lake County (which Herriman anchors with neighboring Riverton and Bluffdale) capturing meaningful share.

The Bottom Line

Herriman is the right fit for buyers who want newer master-planned-community construction at scale, Jordan School District schools (Herriman High or Mountain Ridge High), larger lots than the inner Salt Lake County suburbs, family-suburb amenity density, and accessible mid-tier pricing. Buyers willing to trade urban-edge amenity get newer construction with strong family-suburb character.

Buyers wanting closer Cottonwood canyon ski access, more established neighborhoods, or Canyons / Granite School District feeders typically find better fits in surrounding cities. Compare with South Jordan (Daybreak master-planned, Bees ballpark, Jordan SD), Riverton (similar growth city, smaller and more rural-edge), Bluffdale (smaller adjacent), West Jordan (more value-oriented older), Eagle Mountain (newest growth suburb south), and Draper (Silicon Slopes adjacent, Canyons SD).
