South Jordan has nearly doubled in population since 2010, drawing young Mormon families to master-planned developments south of the metro. That demographic concentration produces some of Utah's highest Republican margins alongside unusually high midterm participation rates.
Across the recorded series it reached a Republican high of 58.5 points in 2012. Between 2020 and 2024 the city moved 4.6 points toward the Democratic candidate; the 2024 margin was 14.1 points.
A population of 82,686, a 81% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $134,047 describe the city. The city's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Bountiful and Farmington.
