Even if you're not a big soccer fan, this offers great insight into the quality of life West Jordan has to offer. While compiling the list researchers found that "cities with impressive, well-maintained soccer complexes also have great parks, well-maintained streets and a host of other amenities that provide residents a high quality of life."
West Jordan has the Utah Youth Soccer Complex, which one of the top-rated sports facilities in the country. It has 20 fields on 117 acres. West Jordan also has 6 mini-parks with playgrounds and open areas, 29 neighborhood parks, several tennis courts, a rodeo arena, 15 baseball fields, and a recreation center.
The study also found that soccer impacted the city on a social level. "There is a sense of community and camraderie developed in soccer that is hard to match," one researcher stated, "When paired with the disciplined teamwork of soccer and the healthy lifestyle promoted by activity in your sports, the quality of life in any community that embraces the sport is enhanced."
Congratulations West Jordan!
