Living in West Haven, Utah
Newer neighborhoods, new schools and Ogden right next door. West Haven has grown fast, and it is easy to see why.
Newer Homes on Ogden's West Side
West Haven sits just west of Ogden, with Roy to the south, Hooper to the west and Marriott-Slaterville to the north. The city was incorporated in 1991 from the farming communities of Kanesville and Wilson, and U.S. Census counts show it has been one of the fastest-growing cities in Weber County since.
For buyers, that growth means choice. Much of West Haven's housing is newer, with subdivisions of single-family homes, townhome communities and larger lots toward the west side, and new construction is still common. It is a popular landing spot for buyers who want a newer home a short drive from downtown Ogden.
Weber School District has added schools to keep up, including Mountain View Junior High in West Haven and West Field High just to the west in Taylor. The Weber and Ogden rivers meet in the northeast part of the city, and I-15 and I-84 are only minutes away.
