Score Breakdown
Our Take
Lehi offers strong schools, solid median income, and proximity to tech jobs, but the high home cost, limited walkability, and flood risk make it a mixed bag. It’s worth a look if you’re a family or tech worker, but expect extra costs and less convenience if you’re city‑savvy.
