Get to know West Point

About West Point

West Point sits in northwestern Davis County between Syracuse and Clinton. Roughly 12,000 residents call the city home. Housing stock is dominated by 2000s–2020s single-family subdivisions with an active new-construction pipeline and a small base of older agricultural-era homes. State Route 193 and proximity to Hill Air Force Base anchor a steady demand base.

Why people move to West Point

People move to West Point for newer family-friendly homes, excellent schools, proximity to Hill Air Force Base, and a quieter west-Davis setting. The city draws first-time buyers, move-up families, and military families.
