Downtown Ogden
Suburban Neighborhood in Ogden, Utah
Weber County 84401
Revitalizing, block by block
Homes here run from around $240,000 for two-bedroom A-Frames built in the early 1930s to more than $450,000 for four-bedroom Craftsman-inspired townhomes built in the 2010s. “The housing that’s walkable from Historic 25th Street is not the area that most people want to live in right now,” says Erb. “There are condos and townhomes on the north side of downtown, by the river, and those are nicer. But the city has huge plans to renovate all of downtown. They’ve torn down whole city blocks where the older houses were totally dilapidated, and they’re going through each city block and turning them around.” She adds that the city is “very intentional” with its revitalization of the area. “You’d be lucky to get a home for $300,000 in the city now,” she says. “The median is closer to $400,000 or $450,000, and there are houses there that are pushing a million now.”Live music and festive annual events
With Linquist Field less than a mile from most homes, Ogden Raptors minor league baseball games can be heard from backyards throughout the neighborhood. Local youngsters can burn off their energy at Ogden Park and Municipal Garden, which features a playground with classic climbing structures and slides, as well as a walking path and shady picnic area. It’s also home to Ogden’s annual Christmas Village, which lights up the garden with miniature homes decorated to the nines for the Christmas season. The windows on the cottages are low enough for even the shortest youngsters to peek in without an adult hoisting them up. Near the playground and garden, locals can enjoy outdoor concerts and films at the Ogden Amphitheater. “And if you go over the mountains to the east, there’s Pine View Lake and two ski resorts, all within a 15-minute drive of Ogden,” says Erb.Ogden city schools
Downtown Ogden youngsters are served by schools in the Ogden City School District. Many go to New Bridge Elementary and continue to Mound Fort Junior High, both of which earn C grades from Niche. Older students go to Ogden High School, which earns a B. The high school was built in the mid-1930s and added to the National Register of Historic Places in the ‘80s for its grand Classical Moderne architecture. And it’s got the brawn and brains to back up its pretty façade. The school’s gym and athletic complex were refurbished and expanded in 2014 to include new state-of-the-art facilities and an eight-lane competition pool. And U.S. News & World Report ranks Ogden High in the top 70 best high schools in the state, based on the college readiness and state assessment performance of its students. Students there can apply to participate in the International Baccalaureate program.Getting around town
Downtown Ogden locals enjoy walkability to all the shopping, dining and entertainment options in their neighborhood. But getting around the wider city is easy, too, with stops on the UTA bus lines at the Ogden Intermodal Bus Station off 24th Street. The FrontRunner commuter rail line, which connects through Weber, Davis, Salt Lake and Utah Counties, also picks up at a station on 24th Street. Salt Lake City is about 40 miles south, a drive that takes less than 40 minutes in light traffic.Tantalizing food scene
Downtown Ogden is the center of the metro’s food scene. It’s where locals come to get fresh produce and artisan, handmade goods at the Ogden Farmer’s Market in the warmer months. And it’s home to everything from coffee shops and brunch spots to breweries, bars and eateries featuring fare inspired by cuisines from around the world. “Ogden is a pretty relaxed town. We have a couple of restaurants that are a little nicer, but for the most part nothing is fancy and people here don’t really care if you’re dressed up or casual,” says Erb, adding that one of the more upscale eateries around here is Table Twenty Five. “It’s a beautiful setting in there and the food is really good. It’s kind of a classier joint,” she says of the sleek American restaurant. Tona Sushi Bar & Grill, Slackwater and Roosters Brewing are among Erb’s favorite dining and drinking spots in Downtown Ogden. And her favorite bar is The Angry Goat. “The food is great, and we like to go there for brunch on Sundays because it’s a bar, so there’s no kids,” she says. For groceries and other everyday essentials, locals can head to the Walmart Supercenter on West 20th Street.
