COMMUNITY PROFILE: DRAPER
General Information
Draper City is a place where you can still choose between rural or suburban living, while enjoying all the amenities of a big city.
Once a farming community, Draper is nestled between two major metropolitan cities, Salt Lake City and Provo, and is surrounded by the Rocky Mountains.
The City has come alive with a fascinating combination of country charm and city excitement. With a growing population and expanding business base, Draper offers diversification and unique job opportunities.
