About Ballpark
The Ballpark neighborhood is southeast Salt Lake City's most distinctively named and most rapidly rising working-class community — the historic residential blocks between 1300 South and 1700 South that take their identity from Smith's Ballpark (America First Field), Utah's professional baseball stadium at 1300 South and West Temple that has anchored southeast SLC's summer social calendar since 1994 as home to the Salt Lake Bees. The $85K+ rising income reflects both established working-class homeowners and professional homebuyers recognizing Ballpark's proximity to Liberty Wells, 9th & 9th, and the rising southeast SLC community.
SLC's vehicle contamination environment leads with winter temperature inversions from December through February — trapping particulate on every outdoor vehicle. Great Salt Lake mineral dust from the shrinking lake's exposed bed year-round. High-altitude UV at 4,300+ feet drives oxidation through 222+ sunny days. Road salt November through March. The working-class community needs direct professional solutions at honest prices.
