Silver Summit CDP, UT in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Silver Summit CDP is a small town in Utah, with 1,574 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #142 of 334 ranked by population — larger than 57% of them. The median age here is 43.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Silver Summit CDP earn a median of $235,329 a year, 199.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 156% above the $91,818 median for the 170 Utah cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 5.2% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Silver Summit CDP is valued at $2,000,001, 559.2% above the national figure and 357% above the $437,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,697 a month, 91.8% above the national figure, or roughly $32,364 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 8.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is out of reach on local earnings alone and the ownership market leans on outside income, equity or dual high earners. 90.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
Home values sit at 8.5× median household income, far past the 3.9× national mark, so ownership costs here are set by something other than local wages — second homes, retirees with equity, or commuters earning elsewhere.
Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
