West Haven, Utah, is a growing suburban city located about 5 miles west of Ogden. Founded in 1991 from the merger of Kanesville and Wilson communities, it has transformed from agricultural fields and dairy farms to a bustling city with a population exceeding 23,000. The primary industries here include manufacturing, construction, and city works, with major employers such as West Haven City, Granite Construction, Kilgore Companies, and Geneva Rock Products. Residential areas feature a mix of housing styles, including multi-story Craftsman homes, modern townhouses, ranch-style homes, patio homes, split levels, and manufactured housing communities. The city boasts 13 parks, including Windsor Farms Park with a disc golf course and fishing pond, and Prevedel Park with an amphitheater. The River Parkway Trail offers scenic outdoor recreation, while the Ogden Bay Waterfowl Management Area provides a vast wetland preserve. Annual events like West Haven Days, an Easter egg hunt, a pumpkin walk, and a winter holiday event foster community spirit. The Weber School District serves the city, with highly rated schools and the newly opened West Field High School.
