Local Details & Carterville Service Area Insight
Carterville is a recognized Provo neighborhood in the city’s Northwest District. In late 2025, Provo divided the former larger Carterville neighborhood along the Provo River, with Carterville remaining west of the river and the new Brickyard neighborhood established to the east. The area includes established residential streets as well as ongoing development near major north Provo corridors.
The neighborhood’s name is also reflected in Carterville Road and the Carterville Road Trail, a short urban trail that connects residential and business areas near the Provo-Orem boundary. Carterville’s position in northwest Provo places residents close to Orem, University Parkway, the Provo River corridor, and services throughout northern Utah County.
