West Valley City Revenue and Competitors

Economic development has continued to be a priority for West Valley City's leaders. Business parks like Lake Park Corporate Center, West Ridge Commerce Park, Decker Lake Business District and Metro Business Park include corporate headquarters, regional offices and world-wide distribution centers for companies like Verizon Wireless, Frito Lay, Backcountry.com, United Parcel Service (UPS) and Discover Card. Economic development activities in the heart of the city include a complete redevelopment of Valley Fair Mall, and an all-new transit oriented development, Fairbourne Station.\r\n\r\nWest Valley City has long celebrated its cultural diversity. The 2010 Census Report estimated the size of the non-white community at almost 35 percent. Fulfilling the dream of former Mayor Gearld L. Wright, the city broke ground on the Utah Cultural Celebration Center in 2002, creating a space where cultures could come together to celebrate with one another. Since opening, the Utah Cultural Celebration Center has hosted hundreds of cultural events. \r\n\r\nRecreation opportunities abound in West Valley City. Two golf courses and more than 20 parks provide ample green space, while the 96,000 square foot Family Fitness Center and the Harman Senior Recreation Center provide recreation and fitness activities for all ages.
