MILLCREEK
Millcreek is an established east-side Salt Lake Valley community that incorporated as a city in 2016. It stretches from the Jordan River on the west to the Wasatch foothills and Millcreek Canyon on the east, with Salt Lake City to the north and Holladay to the south. The city has roughly 63,000 residents and is particularly known for its combination of mature residential neighborhoods and unusually easy access to mountain recreation.
MILLCREEK COMMON
Millcreek Common is essentially Millcreek, Utah’s new downtown/civic gathering place—a large outdoor plaza. The city conceived it as a central place for recreation, events, shopping, and community life. So this isn't just a park with a skating rink—it is part of Millcreek's broader effort to create an actual city center for a relatively young city that historically didn't have one. The city says the goal is a walkable, culturally active "heart" of Millcreek.
PARKS and TRAILS
Millcreek Canyon is immediately east of the city and provides hiking, mountain biking, picnicking and winter recreation. The canyon has a substantial trail network, and its upper road becomes a winter recreation route after the seasonal vehicle closure. Millcreek Canyon is a popular recreation area both in the summer and in the winter. Explore 15 miles of hiking trails, mountain biking routes and picnic areas The densely forested canyon is home to two restaurants and six Boy Scout Day Camps.
HOUSING
Millcreek is attractive if you want an established neighborhood rather than a newer suburban development. Housing is diverse: older brick bungalows, mid-century homes, townhomes, apartments, condos and newer mixed-use developments. Millcreek is an established, desirable east-side community. There are already newer apartment communities such as The Richmond Apartments and Millhaus, while additional residential and mixed-use projects are moving through the pipeline. The city has also been pursuing a project immediately adjacent to the Common that would contain approximately 110 hotel rooms, 25 condominiums and 13,000 square feet of restaurant/retail space, plus structured parking.
And in July 2026, the City Council approved a 210-unit, seven-story mixed-use apartment project just south of the Common.
SCHOOLS
Most public-school students there attend schools in the Granite School District, one of Utah's largest school districts. Granite serves nearly 60,000 students across elementary, junior high, and high schools throughout the Salt Lake Valley.
Millcreek is generally considered one of the stronger education areas in the Salt Lake Valley. Schools such as Skyline High School and Olympus High School are often recognized for solid academic performance, extracurricular activities, athletics, and college preparation programs.
Granite School District provides an online boundary lookup tool for determining assigned schools.
ST. MARKS'S HOSPITAL
St. Mark's Hospital is one of Millcreek’s largest institutional destinations. Its operations bring a large workforce—along with patients, visitors, physicians, vendors, and other health-care businesses—into the community every day.
St. Mark’s serves a population well beyond its immediate neighborhood. Its Level II trauma designation is particularly important: it became the only Level II trauma center in the Salt Lake Valley when it received that designation, allowing seriously injured patients to receive advanced trauma care without being transported farther away.
BUSINESS
Business in Millcreek is divers and an active local economy. The city has around 3,000 businesses, ranging from small independent shops and restaurants to larger retailers and professional services. Millcreek is actively trying to attract and retain businesses. Its economic-development plan identifies outdoor recreation/products, life sciences, software/IT and financial services as priority industries. It also emphasizes supporting small, locally owned businesses and redevelopment because there isn't much vacant commercial land left.
