West Haven is the fastest-growing city in Weber County and the second-fastest growing in all of Utah. The population grew from 17,159 at the 2020 census to over 23,000 in 2024, and projections show it will reach 28,000 by 2026. The city spreads west from Ogden toward the Great Salt Lake, with neighborhoods ranging from newer Craftsman-style homes to townhouses to ranch-style residences. Employment access includes Hill Air Force Base to the south and Ogden's business district to the east. For the roughly 3,500 Medicare residents in this rapidly growing community, that means adapting to a very different environment than traditional retirement communities. Neighborhoods are young, development is ongoing, and the demographic skews toward families and working-age adults.
