Bountiful City is large. I have lived in Bountiful my entire life and I love it here. I love the community, the great schools I attended, and the with the public transportation developing, it's easy to get anywhere! Bountiful has beautiful mountain views, wonderful public parks, and all the entertainment needed for any lifestyle. Being so close to Salt Lake City, it is the perfect city to live in and commute to work. Winter can be hard with the amount of snowfall, but Spring and Summer are very pleasant. Fall is my favorite season in Bountiful because of the cool temperatures, beautiful Fall leaves, and closeness to National Parks that are filled with fun trails and sights. Bountiful is great!

Bountiful is an amazing city. Local leaders are constantly interacting with the community to know how to better serve the area. The schools in Bountiful have exceptional programs and extra-ciriculars that allow students to pursue their interests. The Bountiful community supports their students. Through supply and food drives, Bountiful citizens often donate to those in need. This allows families to receive the supplies that they need. Bountiful is wonderful because it is a community of giving.
I moved to Bountiful about four years ago, when I bought my first house. I’ve lived in the greater Salt Lake area for the past ten years and started by bounced around rentals in Sandy, Cottonwood Heights, and Holladay. I was raised in a small town but love all that is accessible within a city. Bountiful has more of the small-town feeling; however, it is very close to downtown Salt Lake City and Ogden, which allows for a plethora of activities or a variety of shopping that aren’t present in a small town. It’s also situated near the mountain range, offering numerous trails for biking and hiking.
