Magna: Picturesque Charming Community! 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) Moving to Magna was the best decision I’ve ever made. Growing tired of the hustle and bustle of Salt Lake City, I moved to the outskirts of Salt Lake City to the small town of Magna, which lies south of the Great Salt Lake, and has a population of around 27,000.

I can understand why because of the beautiful nearby Oquirrh Mountains making a picturesque backdrop to this beautiful area.

Jobs are abundant in this Greater Salt Lake City area. We are minutes away from major U.S. industries, universities, colleges, and everything in between. Magna sits along the grid system in the Salt Lake Valley, which makes it close to nearby expressways, major roads, and bus routes.

There are plenty of things to do right in Magna. Downtown Magna offers exciting restaurants, shops, a library, and picturesque views of the nearby hovering mountains. I love to relax during shopping at the lovely upscale Brew Monkey Coffee House. Read Less
