Midvale is a city in Salt Lake County, Utah, with a population of 36,028 at the 2020 census, living in 14,398 households and 15,430 housing units.

Midvale officially became a city in 1909 and had a population of 1,760 at the 1910 census.

Midvale's name was adopted for the area's central location within the Salt Lake Valley, and permanent homes began appearing there as early as the 1850s.

Midvale grew quickly in the 1870s thanks to the railroad and its connection to mining in Bingham Canyon, with the western part of the present city becoming an important industrial area for Utah.

The Jordan River forms Midvale's western border, Interstate 15 bisects the city, and Interstate 215 serves as the northern boundary of the city's east side.

Midvale is one of the few cities in Utah served by two direct TRAX light rail lines, with three stations: Bingham Junction on the Red Line and Midvale Fort Union and Midvale Center on the Blue Line.

Bingham Junction, originally the Sharon Steel slag site on about 446 acres on Midvale's western border, was cleaned up under the federal Superfund program and removed from the National Priorities List in 2006, and it now hosts the headquarters of Overstock, CHG Healthcare, and Savage, along with Utah's first Topgolf.

The Shops at Fort Union anchor the east side of Midvale, after the city annexed the historic Fort Union settlement area and its shops.

The Canyons School District has been the primary school district serving Midvale since the 2009-10 school year, and the city has four elementary schools, two middle schools, and Hillcrest High School.
