Kaysville is considered an active community, bordered by the cities Layton and Farmington. About 22 miles from Salt Lake City, Kaysville is flanked by the Wasatch Mountain range in the east and marshes of the Great Salt Lake in the west – a location that encourages outdoor recreation as well as new construction, due to the open land available to build on. What was once a quaint farming community for pioneers in the 1850s has kept its small-town vibes while expanding to include big-city amenities for its population of over 33,700 people.
Major industries in the area are manufacturing, agriculture, finance and technical services. Kaysville’s top employers include Shipley Associates, Fusion Imagines, Avisae and Wells Fargo.

Mixed housing options in west and central Kaysville
In 2024, the median price for a single-family home in Kaysville was $680,000, while the median price for townhouses sat around $434,000. In general, housing prices in the city increased by 5% from 2023 to 2024.

In West Kaysville, homes are bigger and sit on large lots of land. “There are a few old farmhouses still, and some of those have been updated, but most of the homes are new and sell for a million dollars,” says Real Estate Agent Bret Rackham with RE/MAX Associates, who lives in West Kaysville and has almost 10 years of experience. Multi-story homes with modern and Craftsman designs are common, alongside luxury estates. Listing prices range from $650,000 to $2.1 million.

Historic Main Street is Kaysville’s primary shopping and dining area. There are antique stores, vintage clothing stores and specialty shops selling everything from popcorn to outdoor equipment. For food, there are multiple international eateries and American bistros specializing in comfort food. “Everything here is family-owned.

Farther north along Main Street and 200N are where the commercial shopping centers are, with name-brand retailers, fast food eateries and grocery stores.
