St. George is Utah's fastest-growing city and home to Utah Tech University, a school that has grown significantly since becoming a university. The rental market reflects that growth: prices have risen but remain lower than the Salt Lake and Provo corridor, and there is more new construction here than almost anywhere else in the state. The city's desert climate means no winter driving problems and a long outdoor season, which draws students who want access to Zion, Snow Canyon, and miles of trails. The primary student neighborhood is near UTU's campus on the west side of the city, with secondary concentrations in the rapidly developing areas along Riverside Drive.
The student-dense zone around UTU's campus — apartments and complexes built for the university market. Walking and biking to class is realistic. Fills earlier than most people expect given how many units exist.
Newer development along the Virgin River corridor, popular with upperclassmen and graduate students who want modern units. A short drive or bike ride from UTU's campus. Generally more amenities than the older blocks near campus.
Here's what you need to know about getting around St. George.
SunTran, the local bus system, covers St. George's main corridors with reasonable service during the school year. Routes connect the UTU campus to downtown and most residential areas. It is more useful than most people assume — students near campus and along the main routes use it regularly.
Near UTU's campus, biking and walking are genuinely viable. The weather makes year-round biking realistic in a way that Cache Valley or Salt Lake winters do not allow. The city has added trail infrastructure along the river that extends biking options considerably.
Parking is easy in St. George. Most apartments include a spot, street parking is unrestricted in residential areas, and campus parking is available with a permit. This is not a city where parking is a daily stressor.
