Homes Under $500,000 in Price, Utah
Price, Utah sits along US-6 between Spanish Fork Canyon and the coal country of Carbon County, about ninety minutes southeast of the Salt Lake valley. It's a working town built around energy jobs, PacifiCorp's power plant, and the Castle Country coal mines, with Carbon County School District serving families and USU Eastern in nearby Price city anchoring the area's small college presence. Home prices here run well below the Wasatch Front, which is exactly why a $500K budget goes so far — in most neighborhoods it covers a larger lot, more square footage, or a newer build than buyers get in Utah County or Salt Lake.
Under $500K in this market typically means single-family homes with three to five bedrooms, some with acreage or outbuildings suited to trucks, ATVs, or livestock, since many buyers here work shift schedules at the plant or mines and want space to park equipment. You'll also see remodeled older homes near downtown Price and newer construction on the edges of town where lots are cheaper to develop. Winters bring real snow and cold, so furnace age and insulation matter more here than in southern Utah, and it's worth asking about well water versus city hookups on properties outside city limits.

Common questions
About homes under $500k in Price.
What does $500K actually buy in Price, Utah right now? ▾
In most of Price you can still get a 3–4 bedroom single-family home on a standard lot, often built in the last 10–20 years, with a two-car garage. Closer to $400K you'll see older homes near the original townsite or smaller newer builds; pushing toward $500K opens up larger floor plans and occasional homes with RV parking or a casita.
Is Price a good value compared to St. George? ▾
Yes — that's the main reason buyers look here. Comparable homes in St. George or Washington often run $100K–$200K more for similar square footage. The trade-off is fewer retail and dining options and a longer drive to the regional hospital and airport in St. George.
Are there new construction homes under $500K in Price? ▾
There are, though inventory shifts week to week. Several builders have active subdivisions on the east side of town, and base-model 3-bed plans frequently land in the $380K–$470K range. Upgrades, lot premiums, and finished landscaping can push them past $500K quickly.
What are property taxes and HOA fees like in this price range? ▾
Washington County property taxes run roughly 0.5–0.7% of assessed value for primary residences, which is low by national standards. HOAs in Price's newer subdivisions typically run $25–$60/month; older neighborhoods near the townsite usually have no HOA at all.
How's the commute from Price to St. George or Hurricane? ▾
Price to downtown St. George is about 18–22 minutes on I-15, and Hurricane is roughly 25 minutes via SR-9. Most working buyers here commute one of those two directions daily, and traffic stays light outside of the morning rush onto I-15 southbound.
Do homes under $500K here come with usable yards? ▾
Generally yes. Lot sizes in Price tend to run 0.15–0.25 acre in newer subdivisions, which is larger than what the same money buys in St. George proper. Most yards are xeriscaped or partially landscaped to keep water use down, and many have room for a small pool, casita, or RV pad.
