Bountiful sits between Salt Lake City and Ogden on the I-15 corridor, making it a practical mid-point location for students who commute to either city's universities. The rental market is quieter than both Salt Lake and Ogden — this is primarily a bedroom community, and most of the apartment stock reflects that. Students here are typically at the University of Utah, Weber State, or SLCC, splitting their time between studying and whatever brings them to this stretch of Davis County. Rents are moderate and parking is easy. The main student neighborhoods sit near the I-215 interchange and along 400 North where apartment clusters exist.
The most accessible zone for commuters — close to freeway access and where the apartment stock is most concentrated. Practical for students driving to Salt Lake or Ogden daily.
Slightly closer to Salt Lake's northern neighborhoods. The most transit-accessible part of Bountiful via UTA buses connecting to TRAX in Salt Lake.
Here's what you need to know about getting around Bountiful.
UTA buses connect Bountiful to Salt Lake City and the TRAX network, making the U of U reachable without a car if you live near the main routes. The 217 and connected routes are the most used by students. Service is reliable but slower than driving — plan for 30-45 minutes to campus from most Bountiful locations.
Bountiful is a suburban city with limited pedestrian infrastructure. Near the main commercial corridors it is bikeable; in residential areas, everything requires a car or bike. There are some trail connections to the foothills that make recreational biking excellent, but commute biking is limited.
Parking is easy and stress-free throughout Bountiful. Every apartment includes a space, and street parking is abundant. This is not a constraint here.
Common questions from students searching for housing.
Bountiful typically runs $650-$950/mo per person — more affordable than Salt Lake's east side but not as cheap as Ogden or Logan. Shared units are easier to find here than in some neighboring cities, and the market is not highly competitive.
