Tremonton — called “Tremont” by locals — has a population of 13,700 and is considered a retail hub for Bear River Valley. It is also the last full-service stop before crossing the Idaho border. Two major highways are accessible to and from the city, with Ogden only about 39 miles south. “We’re like the crossroads of Utah because we have the main roads coming in and out. There are so many attractions within 20 minutes of us,” says Real Estate Agent Lacey Hansen with Rodeo Realty, who has over 15 years of experience and lives in the city.
Originally settled in 1888 by midwestern farmers, Tremonton became an official city in the early 1900s, finding success in agriculture. Now, the city’s top industries include manufacturing, retail trade and construction. The area’s top employers include Proctor and Gamble, Post, New Corps and the Lakeshore Learning Facility.
