Centralized city between Ogden and SLC

Farmington is a semi-rural city central to Northern Utah – Ogden is about 17 miles north, Salt Lake City is roughly 22 miles south, the Great Salt Lake is to the west and the Wasatch Mountains are directly east. Originally settled in 1847, Farmington is one of the oldest cities in the state. The city has grown in recent years, transitioning into a residential area with a population of 26,000 people. “A lot of people want to live in the Salt Lake area, but they don’t want the city feel,” says Realtor McKenzie Miya with Equity Real Estate, who has nearly 5 years of experience. “Farmington is quieter. It’s the kind of place where your kids can play outside while you’re still inside.”

While most residents commute to Salt Lake City for work, those who stay local can find jobs in the healthcare, retail trade and education industries.
