Expanding city along the Great Salt Lake shoreline
Situated along the Great Salt Lake’s Farmington Bay shoreline, Syracuse is an evolving city about 13 miles southwest of Ogden with abundant outdoor recreation. Settled in the 1870s, the city started as a farming community known for its fruit orchards. Construction of the nearby Hill Air Force Base and Clearfield’s Naval Supply Depot in the 1940s completely changed the job landscape, which evolved again in the 1970s when the Antelope Island causeway opened and provided easy access to the state park. Today, Syracuse’s economy thrives within the agriculture, food services, defense and tourism industries.
With a population of over 37,000 people, Syracuse continues to grow its community with new construction along its western border. “Everyone in Syracuse is super friendly,” says Realtor Chris Brower with Brower Real Estate Group, who has over 10 years of experience. “People are always inviting their neighbors over for barbeques and closing off streets for block parties.”

City parks and access to Antelope Island State Park
Sprawled along Syracuse’s shoreline are acres of wetlands along Farmington Bay. Known as the “Gateway to Antelope Island,” Syracuse connects to the famous state park, providing access to its sandy beaches and rocky mountain passes. There are miles of backcountry trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding. “Syracuse has a diverse landscape of mostly flat terrain, from wetlands to farmlands to a bluff dividing the east and west, and of course, the rare and majestic salt-water lake bordering its edge," says Realtor Cori Vanderbeek with Intermountain Properties, who has 20 years of experience.
Syracuse also has 14 designated city parks, with everything from playgrounds and sports fields to fishing ponds and a skate park. Syracuse Island Splash Pad provides relief on a warm weather day, while the Syracuse Community Center has indoor facilities. There’s also the Glen Eagle Golf Course with its 18 holes. The city is currently working to build Regional Park, which will be a 50-acre greenspace with a sportsplex and pavilions.

Developed subdivisions and new construction homes
Syracuse’s residential landscape is a combination of subdivisions and standalone homes with acres of land. "It offers large lot sizes that give rise to custom, beautiful homes in safe neighborhoods with a little extra elbow room," Vanderbeek says. Most of the city is already developed, though new builds are popping up on Syracuse’s western side. In January 2025, the median price for a single-family home was $575,000, while the median price for townhouses sat around $445,000. Listing prices range between $425,000 and $1.2 million, depending on age and property size.
Neighborhoods on Syracuse’s far northeast side have a variety of housing types, including ranch-style homes, split levels, multi-story Craftsman homes and row houses. Bigger homes on larger lots are more common in central and eastern Syracuse. Neighborhoods in the far southwest feature new construction Craftsman homes.

Syracuse’s history and community events
History and culture are important to Syracuse’s community. The Syracuse Regional Museum features dozens of local history exhibits and displays the Historic Wilcox Cabin. The Heritage Days Festival is a week-long event in late June and one of the more popular city events. There’s a Miss Syracuse pageant, a parade, multiple live performances and a fireworks show. Other annual events include the Easter egg hunt and a pumpkin walk. "The fall farm stands are fun," Vanderbeek says. "It's a throwback to Syracuse's farming heritage."

Navigating Northern Utah cities
The Utah Transit Authority (UTA) has multiple bus stops in Syracuse, however, most commuters prefer driving. Utah state Highway 193 travels across the city and connects to Interstate 15 in Clearfield. There’s also the West Davis Corridor, which travels north to south and reaches Salt Lake City, roughly 30 miles away. “Since they opened up the West Davis Corridor, the area has opened up a ton. It has eliminated all the time it takes to find a freeway,” says Realtor Sarah Schelin with Ascent Real Estate Group, who has nearly 10 years of experience. The Salt Lake City International Airport is 33 miles away for commercial flights.
Syracuse’s dry climate and low crime
Syracuse experiences all four seasons, with an average annual snowfall of 39 inches. "The pink-tinted, snow-covered winter mountains viewed at a distance always sport a huge supermoon rising up over the ridgetops, and in the summer, the view becomes the purple mountain hue against a blue sky and green groundscape," Vanderbeek says. The dry climate puts certain areas at risk of potential wildfires, but the Syracuse City Fire Department’s Station 31 is trained to combat the risk.
According to the Bureau of Criminal Identification, the Syracuse Police Department reported an 11% increase in violent offenses from 2019 to 2024, while property offenses decreased by 32%. FBI crime statistics show that both violent and property crime rates reported for that time frame were far below state and national averages.
