  • Ultimate Neighborhood Guide Overview
    Sandy Ultimate Neighborhood Guide Overview Home to around 100,000 people, Sandy ranks as Utah’s 6th largest city. It comprises 22 square miles from I-15 to the beautiful foothills of the Wasatch Front. Sandy has a median age of 35 and is a very family-friendly city. Sandy is close to several local favorites while still maintaining the benefits of a smaller city. With the city’s close proximity to the mountains, summers there are often spent hiking through Big or Little Cottonwood Canyons. When the weather gets colder, Sandy is just a short drive to world famous ski and snowboarding slopes. The city has seen a large residential and commercial increase over the last few years. Sandy is a safe city, with a crime rate of 236.5 compared to the national average of 280.5. Overall, Sandy is a rapidly growing, clean, and family-friendly city with a lot to offer residents and visitors alike. History Mormon Pioneers began to settle the Sandy area in the 1860s. It was a farming community with few people and widely spaced homes. When mining began in the nearby canyons and the railroad arrived in 1877, Sandy changed from a quiet agricultural village to a booming mining town. There were three smelters and two sampling mills there for testing the ores brought down from the mines. The railroad station was located almost directly across the street from the current-day Sandy Museum. In those days, the museum building was a ZCMI Co-op store where the farmers, miners, and local Native Americans came to buy or trade items.
