Adobe Intern Community Guide - Lehi

WELCOME TO LEHI

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR INTERNSHIP WITH ADOBE! We are so excited you will be joining us soon. Lehi is an amazing community with tons of activities to do and places to see. There are so many perks to living in Lehi – access to new people, food, and technology but with that comes the challenge of finding affordable housing. Rental home and apartment prices tend to be high in Utah Valley, so we recommend finding a roommate/housemate to split the cost of housing and utilities. Figure out where you want to live and get started on the search as early as you can. We have compiled some information together for you to help get you oriented with your internship location. We wish you luck in your housing search! WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT RENTING IN LEHI Lehi, Utah – located in the north-central region of the state, roughly 23 miles south of Salt Lake City – is situated at the northernmost point of Utah Lake, in between the Oquirrh and Wasatch Mountain ranges. “Lehi is a good place to live” has been the city’s official slogan since 1911. Besides a safe, quiet, family-oriented environment, the city offers recreational opportunities like Saratoga Resort, Heritage Theatre, and the Lehi Roundup rodeo, in addition to various local parks. The Lehi Roller Mills is a famous landmark listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was featured in the 1984 movie Footloose . With a population increase of more than 135% since 2000, Lehi is a fast-growing community that has been gradually transitioning from an agricultural to a technological economy. In addition to life in Lehi, popular areas to live in include Sandy, Draper, Riverton, and Bluffdale to the north, and Pleasant Grove, Orem, and Provo – home to Brigham Young University – to the south. Provo has a strong college-town feel. Orem, just north, is a suburban family community. Both are clean and relatively contemporary in look and feel yet traditional in values and culture.
