Workforce Wage tiers

Eligibility now runs on the Workforce Wage, not AMI

Resolution 12-2025 replaced federal AMI with a locally derived Workforce Wage (WFW) because wealthy part-time residents skew HUD's AMI upward. Income figures are 2025 values for a three-person household and are reviewed annually.

The jobs-versus-housing gap

Jobs grew 24.6% between 2020 and 2025 while population grew 1.6%. The difference is filled by in-commuters. Lower Park City (84060) holds 14,338 jobs but only 5,740 resident workers — roughly 8,600 net in-commuters every working day. That is the same shortfall the City’s goal of housing 15% of its workforce inside 84060 is meant to close.

Wasatch County was both the #2 source of new residents (278 in) and the #2 destination for leavers (433 out) — a net loss of 155 people to Wasatch County alone. Salt Lake County ran 515 in against 672 out. Read together with the commuting figures, this is evidence of workers being priced outward while their jobs stay here.
