Maryland Mom Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Hi! My family is moving to Park City, UT in the near future and looking for a neighborhood with a strong LDS community. I know that Park City overall is less Mormon then other cities in the state, but does anyone have recommendations for a neighborhood with a relatively tight-knight community where we will feel welcome? Thanks! Link to comment
bluebell Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I don't know anyone who lives in Park City but I wish you the best on your move. We moved to the state (davis county) in 2013 and so far we have loved it. Link to comment
Maryland Mom Posted March 6, 2019 Author Share Posted March 6, 2019 Thanks ... and I meant to write "tight-knit".... Link to comment
Storm Rider Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 We left some 30 years ago now - cannot believe it has been that long - but have returned on visits and vacations. While we lived there we lived in two locations - downtown and then in Deer Valley. Of all the places we have lived, I still think of Deer Valley as one of our most favorites - Bellevue, WA is still probably our most favorite. We never felt uncomfortable with any of the people we met. I don't think I would be concerned too much about finding fellow members of the church - they will be there already - just find a place that is comfortable to you and your family. You will have a great time. 1 Link to comment
Garden Girl Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I loved Park City, but it was a vacation visit so I don't know much about actually living there... I think you can find the bishop(s) online, and find info about wards... from the beach on a cold, rainy day here on the Oregon coast... GG 1 Link to comment

Maryland Mom Posted March 6, 2019 Author Share Posted March 6, 2019 Thanks - I know someone in that neighborhood but I get the feeling it isn't a warm, welcoming community where the kids bike to each others' homes. But maybe I'm wrong. Link to comment
Calm Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) Depending on where you live, expecting biking is a bit much. Those hills can be steep. Edited March 6, 2019 by Calm Link to comment

But maybe I'm wrong. The thing about Park City is that it is very expensive. It is a resort community, and growing rapidly. A wonderland for children. Link to comment
MustardSeed Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Hooray for a new adventure! Park city is heavenly. We stayed at an air bnb in a community right next to park city- I believe it’s called Summit area. It has a tricks bike park called Trailside, it’s AWESOME and the church building is at the foot of the bike park hill. It’s one those fancy ones Link to comment
