Holladay, UT 301 Apartments for Rent

John Cusack fans are fanatical about his 1980s films, particularly one of the darkest (and funniest) - Better Off Dead. The grocery store scene was shot in Holladay’s local market, Dan's Foods, formerly located on South Wasatch Drive. 

The first Holladay residents arrived in 1847, making it the oldest continuously occupied settlement in Utah. However, the community wasn’t actually incorporated until 1999. This came about when Holladay citizens decided that preserving the rural feel of the community was a priority, and they wanted to be sure that they would have their voices heard when important decisions were made. As a result, when you move to Holladay, you can expect lots of green – trees and foliage are one of the most often-cited favorite parts of Holladay living.

Living in Holladay

The most important thing you need to know about Holladay is go now – and don’t look back. Pioneers were quick to settle the area in the 1800s, because it has all of the best parts of America in one small radius. Evidently, the urge to go west hasn’t been satisfied, as Holladay is becoming more and more popular every year.  

It's easy to see why the Holladay fans are increasing in number... the area boasts easy access to both mountain and canyons (and all of the recreational activities they include). And let's not forget about the small town activities you love: a local movie theatre, restaurants, and neighbors reminiscent of "Leave It to Beaver". These amenities have led to a massive influx of new faces – the population of Holladay jumped from 14,561 to 26,472 between 2000 and 2010.
