If you search for the meaning of “Snobby,” you’ll find it described as a negative term for someone who believes they’re superior due to things like social status, education, or class. In short, a snob is someone who thinks they’re better than everyone else. In this article, we’ll dive into the Utah cities that top the charts for snobbery.
UTAH’S 10 SNOBBIEST CITIES:
10. HUNTSVILLE, UTAH:
Huntsville may be a tiny town up in Northern Utah, but the snob factor is huge! With an average home price of $2.3 million, you can bet that exclusivity comes with the territory. Compare that to St. George, where homes cost about $296 per square foot—Huntsville clocks in at $426 per square foot! Ouch!
9. HOLLADAY, UTAH
Holladay is a stunning place, and it's no surprise some Utah Jazz players choose to live there. With its ritzy reputation, snobbery isn’t far behind. The average home price in Holladay right now is around $900,000. I guess I’m not fancy enough for Holladay living!
8. PLEASANT GROVE, UTAH:
Utah County is known for having some snobbish vibes, and Pleasant Grove certainly stands out. The homes might be a bit more affordable compared to others on this list, but there’s still something about “PG” that makes you feel like you don’t quite belong.
7. SANDY, UTAH:
Sandy is a city I personally love, but that doesn’t save it from making the list! Home prices here range from $300,000 to a whopping $16 million! And if you’ve ever visited, you’ve probably encountered a few “BYU All-Stars” still holding onto their glory days.
6. MAPLETON, UTAH:
Mapleton is a beautiful, somewhat secluded town with a lot of wealth—and with wealth comes a bit of snobbery! Homes are listed at an average of $800,000 but tend to sell for closer to $650,000. That price gap? Totally screams snobby!
5. SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH:
Salt Lake City once ranked among the snobbiest cities in the entire country. It may have dropped from the national list, but it's still a contender here in Utah. I mean, we’ve got The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, so that says a lot right there!
4. ST. GEORGE, UTAH:
My hometown makes it to #4! If you live in St. George, you know the pressure to "keep up with the Joneses" is real. From fashion to homes and cars, people here love to show off—and everyone seems to follow the same trend.
3. DRAPER, UTAH:
Coming in at #3 is Draper! On a windy day, you might spot a few false eyelashes or hair extensions blowing down the street. Similar to Mapleton, homes are listed at $925,000 on average, but typically sell for around $637,000. Draper is definitely snobby, but two bigger offenders are still ahead!
2. PARK CITY, UTAH:
No snobby city list would be complete without Park City. Surprised it’s not #1? If you’ve ever been there, you know the feeling of not quite fitting in. The average household income in Park City is $131,000, and those homes? Gorgeous and expensive!
1. ALPINE, UTAH:
Topping our list is Alpine, where the average home price is a staggering $2.75 million! The median household income here is $162,000, which is $31,000 more than Park City. You’ll find homes listed for around $1.3 million, but some can go up to $10 million!

Another city that I really love is Sandy... But loving them doesn't protect them from this list! You'll see homes ranging from $300,000 to $16,000,000 in Sandy and everywhere in between! If you've ever been to Sandy, you FOR SURE have seen some "BYU All-Stars". (A BYU All-Star is someone that was awesome in high school and college and still believe they're in those same glory days 10 years later.)
6. MAPLETON, UTAH:
Mapleton is gorgeous, out a bit from civilization, but with all the money in Mapleton, you're going to get some snob! It's only natural. Something interesting about Mapleton is... Homes are being listed on average at $800,000, but only being sold for about $650,000. That is the DEFINITION of snob!
5. SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH:
A few years ago, Salt Lake City made the list for Snobbiest City in the ENTIRE United States! They're no longer on the national list, but they're definitely in the state list! I mean, come on! We have The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. They're on the list. You can't even argue this one!
4. ST. GEORGE, UTAH:
Ahhh... My homeland. That's right. St. George comes in at #4 on the list. If you've ever lived here, you understand that for a lot of people, they've gotta "Keep up with the Joneses" here in St. George! A lot of the women dress alike, look alike, sound alike, and all have to have the nicest homes and cars.
3. DRAPER, UTAH:
Draper hits #3 on the list! If you've been to Draper on a windy day, you'll be able to see all the false eyelashes, and extensions flying down the street in the wind! Draper is very similar to Mapleton with the home prices. Homes in Draper, on average, are listed at $925,000, but ONLY SELLING at $637,000! That's quite the gap! Draper would be #1 on this list, if we didn't have two absolute JUGGERNAUTS coming up next!
2. PARK CITY, UTAH:
Of course, you've got to have Park City on this list... and I'm sure a lot of people are shocked that Park City is not #1. If you've ever been to Park City, you instantly feel like you're not welcome there. You're not "one of them." That's okay though, I hope to someday be one of them! Those homes are gorgeous and worth SO MUCH MONEY! The average income for a household in Park City is around $131,000.
1. ALPINE, UTAH:
The average home price in Alpine is $2,750,000! However, the median income for a household is only $162,000. A full $31,000 more than Park City at #2 on this list. Homes are currently for sale in Alpine (on average) at $1,300,000! But, you'll even see homes up to $10,000,000 though.
