Buildability™Buildability ScoreWhat limits this score
Septic limitation not applied — servicing unknown
USDA rates this soil "Very limited" for septic absorption fields, but OpenStreetMap did not answer, so nothing here establishes whether the lot sits on an established street grid with sewer service. The septic constraint is not applied to the Score. If there is no sewer, it applies in full: a standard septic system likely fails here and an engineered system can cost tens of thousands more. Confirm service with the utility, or re-run when the street read is available. (USDA SSURGO (engstafdcd); OpenStreetMap street density did not answer)
Zoning coverage: District identity R-1.8 is on record, but the dimensional standards aren’t digitised yet. The full report queues a read of the ordinance.

Questions about this score
What is the Buildability Score™ for 9563 S 2500 W, SOUTH JORDAN, UT, 84095?
9563 S 2500 W, SOUTH JORDAN, UT, 84095 carries a Buildability Score of 89 out of 100. The score is composed from 5 weighted factors, each cited to its federal or jurisdictional source, from records read September 2, 2026.
Which factor most affects 9563 S 2500 W, SOUTH JORDAN, UT, 84095?
The weakest factor at this address is seismic — scored 55 out of 100, which reads as moderate risk (every factor is scored so that higher means fewer constraints). That's the factor most likely to constrain what a design can carry, and the one to inspect first before committing capital.
What's this parcel's strongest attribute?
Flood scores 95 out of 100 — minimal risk, and the highest of the 7 factors read for this address. Higher scores mean fewer constraints, not more.
Where does the data come from?
Every factor cites the federal or jurisdictional dataset it came from — FEMA (flood), USGS (seismic), USFS (wildfire), EPA (radon), USDA/NRCS (soil), and the local jurisdiction's own zoning record where available. These records were read September 2, 2026; a stored read older than 90 days is run again when this page is opened.
Does the Buildability Score account for local zoning in South Jordan city, UT?
When South Jordan city, UT's zoning record is on our roster, the score reads the jurisdiction's own dimensional standards for the district this parcel sits in. When it isn't, the zoning factor drops out rather than being estimated — which is why parcels in un-rostered jurisdictions still return a score, just one that doesn't count zoning.
Is this an official determination?
No. The Buildability Score™ is a preliminary due-diligence read, not an entitlement or permit approval. Governing bodies retain sole authority over binding land-use decisions. The score's role is to make the diligence conversation faster and better-grounded, not to replace it.
