Three Utah cities listed among best college towns in nation
Three Utah cities were named among the best towns for college students by WalletHub. Salt Lake City was ranked No. 5 in the nation among midsize cities and Provo and Orem ranked No. 3 and No. 5 respectively for small cities. The WalletHub study compared more than 400 cities with 32 key metrics split into three categories: wallet friendliness, social environment, and academic and economic opportunities. The metrics included housing costs, cost of living, population, retail, crime, job growth, and more. “As student expenses can reach over $30,000 for a 12-month period, students should try to find the most bang for their buck,” WalletHub said. “That’s especially true during the current period of high inflation, as money is tight for many people.” Salt Lake City, home to the University of Utah, ranked No. 17 overall in the United States, earning notable praise for the capital city’s social environment. WalletHub ranked Salt Lake’s social environment No. 28 overall while its wallet friendliness and opportunities scored slightly above average.Provo’s BYU
Provo, home to Brigham Young University, ranked No. 7 overall and notably ranked second in the nation for the lowest cost of higher education. Provo scored particularly well in wallet friendliness and academic and economic opportunities, ranking No. 25 and No. 73 respectively. The BYU city ranked just above average in social environment. BYU’s tuition for an undergraduate degree comes in at $6,300 for Latter-Day Saints. For non-Latter-Day Saints, an undergraduate degree comes in at a relatively affordable $12,600.Orem’s Utah Valley University
Utah Valley University is found in the city of Orem, which ranked No. 12 overall, earning WalletHub praise for its academic and economic opportunities (No. 23). The UVU ranked above average for its wallet friendliness (No. 134), but below average for its social environment (No. 270). Utah residents for UVU can expect to pay just over $5,600 a year for tuition while non-resident costs spike to just over $17,000.Posted By: SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (ABC4) –
