Riverton

Riverton City is uniquely situated in the southwest portion of Salt Lake County. From this excellent location the city is part of the Salt Lake metro area, but is also only 25 minutes from the Orem/Provo metro area.

The Salt Lake City International Airport is only 25 minutes away along the newly constructed Bangerter Highway located on the west side of the City.

As the center of the Wasatch moves south, Riverton's location is more attractive than ever.
