Cities in Salt Lake County
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.

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