Character and lifestyle

Highland Park is the busiest corner of Daybreak. It is one of the most active villages in the community, and the energy shows: streets in constant use after school, a splash pad that stays busy all summer, and parks that see steady use on weekends. Where Founders Park feels established and Garden Park feels quiet, Highland Park feels active. That is the draw for households with young kids who want neighbors in the same season of life.

Day to day, the parks are the center of gravity. The Highland Park splash pad ranks among the most-used in Salt Lake County during summer, and it sits beside a playground, a sand volleyball court, a picnic pavilion, and open turf. The streets are walkable to schools, parks, and the wider trail network, and paths connect the village to Garden Park, Founders Park, and SoDa Row. Kids can get where they are going on foot or by bike, which is a large part of the appeal here.

Boundaries and where it sits

Highland Park is described locally this way:

• Position: central Daybreak corridor
• West neighbor: Founders Park
• East: the newer eastern villages
• Connections: trails link to Garden Park, Founders Park, and SoDa Row

It functions as a central hub within the community, tied to the neighboring villages by paths. Highland Park is one of several distinct villages within Daybreak in South Jordan, sitting between Founders Park and the newer eastern neighborhoods.

Getting around

Daybreak was designed to be walked and biked, and Highland Park makes full use of that with kids moving between homes, schools, and parks on the paths. The trail network connects the village to Garden Park, Founders Park, SoDa Row, and Oquirrh Lake. For transit, the Red Line TRAX terminates in the community at the Daybreak Parkway station, linking to Murray, downtown Salt Lake City, and connections toward the airport.

When you do drive, the location works for the southwest-side commutes:

That combination, walkable to schools and parks at home, connected by trail and rail, is a big part of why families settle in Highland Park.

What locals know

A few things that do not show up in a listing but matter once you live here:

• This is the busy, family one. Highland Park is active after school and on weekends. If you want neighbors with kids the same age, that energy is the point. If you want quiet, look at Garden Park.
• The splash pad is a magnet. It is one of the most-used in the county, which is popular and worth knowing if you buy right beside it.
• Walk-to-school is real here. Homes within an easy walk of the schools and parks are a genuine draw, so weigh proximity when you compare streets.
• HOA dues buy the lifestyle. The Daybreak dues fund the pools, trails, lake, and events. Check what your specific subsection covers.
• Well-priced homes move. With family demand steady and median days on market around 45 in Daybreak’s 84009, correctly priced homes here go under contract quickly.

A local broker’s take

Highland Park is the village to choose when family life is the whole point. It is busy in the best way, with a heavily used splash pad, parks in constant rotation, and schools you can walk to. The trade-off is activity: this is not the quiet corner of Daybreak, and homes right on the parks carry that energy. If that suits your household, it is one of the easiest fits in the community. When you find a home you like, we will pull the current numbers for that block, confirm the school assignment, and walk the HOA details before you write an offer.
