Living in Roy, Utah
Established neighborhoods, a FrontRunner station and Hill Air Force Base just across the freeway. Roy is one of the most practical places to live in Weber County.
A Commuter-Friendly City With a Hometown Feel
Roy sits on the west side of I-15 in southern Weber County, between Ogden and northern Davis County. The 5600 South interchange puts you on the freeway in minutes, and the north entrance to Hill Air Force Base is reached from that same exit, which is a big reason so many military and civilian base employees call Roy home.
Much of Roy grew up in the 1950s and 1960s, when the east bench filled in with ramblers and starter homes, and newer subdivisions followed on the west side from the 1980s on. That mix means you can find established streets with mature trees as well as newer homes with bigger floor plans.
Commuting is flexible too. Roy has its own FrontRunner station, so you can ride the train to Ogden, Davis County or Salt Lake City, and the Hill Aerospace Museum, the Roy Aquatic Center and a long list of city parks are all close to home.
