For over a decade, Daybreak located in South Jordan, Utah has been Salt Lake’s #1 place to buy a new home. Daybreak is nicely situated about a half hour from the emerging “Silicon Slopes” technology district in northern Utah County.
Best Places to live in Utah
What is it about Daybreak that makes it one of the best places to live in Utah? We think it all adds up to this: every facet of Daybreak has been thoughtfully considered and carefully crafted to make your day better.
Sustainability
Daybreak has grown to encompass over 6,000 homes and is home to over 21,000 people. It’s a place where real, sustainable growth is happening right now. Helping it become a place where commerce thrives. Where people feel a deep connection to nature and to each other. And where the careful conservation of energy, land and other resources gives our children the safe, healthy future they deserve.
And here is a fun fact, even Mother Nature loves. By the time Daybreak is complete, we will have planted 100,000 new trees.
Walkability
The plan for Daybreak is based on a simple 5-minute rule—placing parks, restaurants, shopping, schools, offices and Trax light rail within easy walking or biking distance from home. It’s an open invitation to leave the car in the garage and explore a little.
Healthy Living
With over 30 miles of trails, Oquirrh Lake in the Lower Villages, the Watercourse coming soon to the Upper Villages, and at least one park within easy walking distance of every home, Daybreak is really just one huge playground/gym/mediation studio.
Education
If there’s one thing smarter than a good school, it’s a good-and-close school. That’s why one of the first things to get built in Daybreak was a neighborhood school, in fact one of the excellent public schools that South Jordan is known for. And it’s why, since then, that six other schools — public, private and charter — have popped up in Daybreak. With more schools planned in the not-too-distant future.

Transportation
Thanks to TRAX light rail, the Mountain View Corridor and several other major transportation projects getting from your new Daybreak home to everywhere is easy and just gets easier.
LiveDAYBREAK
A key element, for creating the vibrancy and culture that Daybreak is known for, is the creation of a non-profit entity LiveDAYBREAK. For more than 10 years, LiveDAYBREAK has woven a tapestry of connection, lifelong learning, arts & diversity, healthy living and philanthropy into Daybreak. And let’s not forget to mention a whole lot of fun!
New Homes In Utah’s Best Selling Community
Although it’s one large community, Daybreak includes 12 smaller neighborhoods or villages within it that each cater to different lifestyles and life stages. This has created a place with a mix of architectural styles, and a wonderful mix of people who live here. It is also why 1 out of 6 new homes sold in the Salt Lake Valley continues to be in Daybreak.
