Moving to Pleasant View, Utah

Sources: U.S. Census Bureau, NOAA, USGS, the Utah State Tax Commission, and Pleasant View City. Prices move, so ask me for current numbers.

Pleasant View is a city of about 11,400 people at the north end of Weber County. It covers about 7 square miles. The ground climbs from about 4,250 feet on the west edge by I-15 to over 5,400 feet on the hillside under Ben Lomond Peak. City Hall sits at about 4,460 feet. One northeast corner of the city line climbs onto the mountain face. The Great Salt Lake lies out to the west.

North Ogden is next door to the east, and Harrisville lies to the south. Farr West touches the southwest and west edges. To the north, across the county line, the Willard area is in Box Elder County. National forest covers the mountain to the northeast. The county offices are in Ogden, about 13 minutes south.

Ben Lomond Peak is about 9,700 feet high and fills the sky above town. The outdoor recreation topic has the routes to the top.

The city’s own history page says the Simeon Cragun family settled here first, in 1851. Early on, people called the place the West End, the West District and Stringtown. They chose those names because it lay west of North Ogden. Wilford Cragun, the first child born in the settlement, said the land had a “pleasant view.” The name stuck, and it became official in 1882. Pioneers called the tall, straight trees at the foot of the mountain “Pole Patch.” Today Pole Patch Drive runs through that part of the hillside.

The city was incorporated on August 27, 1945, with Odell Kirk as its first town president. John C. Fremont stopped at the hot springs near here in 1843, according to the same history. The Utah Hot Springs guide on The Local tells where the springs are today. In 2026 the settlement turns 175 years old. The Pleasant View Heritage Foundation sells a 389-page book on those years, called “Pleasant View: Piecing Together 175 Years.”

Pleasant View grew from 7,979 people in 2010 to 11,083 at the 2020 count, a rise of 39 percent. The Census estimate for 2025 is 11,423, up only 3.1 percent since 2020, so growth has slowed. Most of the city is newer than 1990. A few older homes sit on the original streets near Pleasant View Drive and 500 West. The housing market topic has the numbers.

Most jobs are south of town. FrontRunner, the commuter train, ran to Pleasant View from 2008 until its last train on August 10, 2018. No train stops in the city today. The public transportation topic tells where to catch one. The city also adopted a water plan on November 18, 2025. It projects up to 21,282 people by 2050 and says the water needed at that size “exceeds the anticipated supply.” The utilities topic covers who supplies water today.

Pleasant View has four real seasons. Summers are warm and dry. Winters are cold, with snow from November through April. Spring and fall are mild. NOAA keeps no weather station with normals in town. The temperatures below come from its 1991 to 2020 normals at the Ogden NE Bench station. That station is about 6 miles south, on the same hillside, and about 115 feet higher than City Hall.

Month by month

These are the normal highs and lows for each month. Summer nights cool off fast. A normal July night drops to about 62°F.

• JanuaryHigh 37°F, low 22°F
• FebruaryHigh 42°F, low 27°F
• MarchHigh 52°F, low 33°F
• AprilHigh 59°F, low 39°F
• MayHigh 69°F, low 48°F
• JuneHigh 80°F, low 55°F

• SeptemberHigh 76°F, low 53°F
• OctoberHigh 62°F, low 41°F
• NovemberHigh 49°F, low 31°F
• DecemberHigh 38°F, low 24°F

Source: NOAA climate normals, 1991 to 2020, Ogden NE Bench station. It has reported temperatures since 2010, so those normals rest on about ten years of data.

Rain and melted snow add up to about 25 inches a year. That is NOAA’s estimate for the station, not a measured normal. January and December are the wettest months, and July is the driest.

Frost dates matter if you garden. The last spring freeze is usually around April 19, and the first fall freeze around October 22. That leaves a frost-free season of about 186 days. In one year out of ten, the last frost comes as late as May 4. A normal year has about 116 nights at freezing or colder.

The hillside has a longer growing season than the flat low ground to the north. Brigham City, on the flat land, has about 150 frost-free days. Its last freeze comes about two weeks later in spring, and its first about two weeks earlier in fall. The west side of Pleasant View sits lower than City Hall, so its frost dates probably fall between the two stations.

For the day to day side, see Pleasant View on The Local.

Pleasant View gets about 38 inches of snow in a normal year. No station in town keeps snow normals. This figure is NOAA’s normal for Brigham City, about 14 miles north on the flat low ground. It is the nearest station that keeps snow records. NOAA marks it as provisional, so the figure may change. The upper streets get more snow than the station does.

January is the snowiest month, with about 12 inches. December brings about 8.5 and February about 7.5. March and November each bring about 4. Snow can start in October, with about half an inch, and can fall into April. From May through September there is none. Winter, from December through February, brings about 28 of the 38 inches.

Snow depends on how high you live. The city runs from about 4,250 feet by I-15 to over 5,400 feet on the hillside. The upper streets run cooler and snowier than either station. No station measures snow on those streets, so treat this as a hint, not a count.

For the bigger picture on snow and water in Utah, read my guide on Utah water and snowpack.

Summers are warm and dry. A normal July afternoon reaches about 89°F. That is a few degrees cooler than Ogden and Salt Lake City, and a little warmer than Logan. Nights fall to about 62°F, so the house cools off after dark.

Hot days still come. A normal year has about 38 days at 90°F or hotter. August is a little cooler than July, with highs near 88°F. Brigham City, on the flat low ground, averages 91°F in July and has about 45 hot days. The hillside station runs 2 to 3 degrees cooler and has fewer hot days.

Summer is also the season for ozone, a gas that forms on hot, sunny days. The air quality topic below has the details. The outdoor recreation topic covers the trail.

Pleasant View has no wind record. No wind gauge sits in town, so there is no local number to give, and no wind event on file. I will not guess at one.

Here is what I would check on a home on the open hillside. Ask how old the roof is. Look for sturdy fencing, and plan to tie down trampolines, sheds and patio furniture each fall. Read the wind and hail deductible on an insurance quote, because it can matter more than the price. The home checks topic has the rest of the list.

Yes, in winter, like the rest of the Wasatch Front. An inversion is when cold air gets trapped in a valley under a lid of warmer air. On calm winter days, haze builds in that trapped air. A storm usually clears it out. The Weber-Morgan Health Department says winter inversions trap haze over the flat low ground. No air monitor sits in Pleasant View, so I cannot say how the hillside compares with the streets below.

What the EPA says

Part of Weber County is in the Northern Wasatch Front area for the 2015 ozone standard. Ozone is a gas that forms on hot, sunny days. EPA lists that area as Serious, which means it does not meet the standard. On April 21, 2026, EPA proposed to repeal the Serious classification. That was not final at the last EPA list, dated September 30, 2026.

Fine particles, called PM2.5, are the main winter haze concern. Part of Weber County is in the Salt Lake City area for the 2006 PM2.5 standard. That area became a maintenance area on December 19, 2025. That means it now meets the standard and has a plan to keep it that way.

EPA lists only part of the county in each area. Check the EPA map to see whether an address falls inside.

Here is what I would do. Check the air each day on the state’s air quality site, the way you check the weather. If air matters to you, visit during a gray winter stretch and a hot summer afternoon before you buy.

Weber County also runs a vehicle emissions program. The first 90 days topic covers it.

The house is the biggest cost of living in Pleasant View. The glance box at the top of this page shows the latest typical home value, from the U.S. Census. Be careful with figures you find online. There is also a Pleasant View neighborhood inside Provo, with very different prices.

The city sends one monthly bill. Its fixed part is about $105 a month before you use any water. That is the base water charge of $24.50, sewer at $32.25, garbage at $15.85, recycling at $7.85, and storm water at $7.80. A road fee called the transportation utility fee adds $16.96. These are the city fee schedule amounts as of October 13, 2026.

Water use comes on top of that. The first 6,000 gallons cost $1.25 per 1,000 gallons. The price climbs in steps to $7.00 per 1,000 gallons above 84,000. City water is for indoor use only, so yard water is a separate bill. The utilities topic tells who sends it. Power and gas come on their own bills too.

Groceries are a short run. The weekly shop is east in North Ogden, about 5 minutes away, not south toward Ogden. Walmart, Costco, and the mall are the south trips. The shopping topic has the stores. I can run a side-by-side budget for Pleasant View, North Ogden, and Ogden if you want one.

Sources: U.S. Census Bureau (ACS 2020 to 2024), the Pleasant View consolidated fee schedule as of October 13, 2026, and the Utah State Tax Commission. The monthly total is the sum of the listed lines. Costs change, so ask me for current numbers.

For general information only. This is not tax or financial advice. Tax rates and home prices change. Consult a qualified professional for guidance specific to your situation.

Three taxes matter most when you move here: sales tax, state income tax, and property tax. The table shows each one for Pleasant View.

Utah gives a tax break on the home you live in. A primary home is taxed on 55% of its market value, not the full value. From January 1, 2027, a new owner must apply for the break when ownership changes. Ask about it at closing.

Your property tax bill comes from many taxing groups. The school district takes the largest share. The county and the city add more, and so do a few special districts. They cover fire, sewer, water supply, mosquito control, a cemetery, and 911 dispatch. North View Fire District and Weber Basin Water are on every Pleasant View bill.

The city cut its own rate for 2026. The council adopted 0.000759 on June 9, 2026, down from 0.000767, by a vote of 5 to 0. The city's tax impact schedule reads "No property tax increase." The council considered an increase in May and dropped it. Two districts on your bill, North View Fire and Weber Basin Water, proposed increases in 2026. The city did not.

The city has 14 tax areas, so the rate changes by address. Bona Vista Water's levy sits on some areas on the west side. Read the notice for the exact address. The county sends a value notice at the end of July and a tax notice around November. Weber County also requires an emissions test to register most cars, and the first 90 days topic has the rule.

Sources: the Utah State Tax Commission (sales and energy tax rates in effect October 1, 2026, and the 2025 levy report), Pleasant View City council minutes of June 9, 2026, the Weber County tax area list for 2025, and the Weber County 2026 notice of proposed tax increases. The 0.59% figure adds the 2025 levies for a typical Pleasant View tax area, so confirm it on a real tax notice.

For general information only. This is not tax or financial advice. Tax rates and home prices change. Consult a qualified professional for guidance specific to your situation.

The glance box at the top of this page shows the latest typical home value for Pleasant View, from the U.S. Census. That number is what owners think their homes are worth, averaged over five years. It is not a sale price. Price any home against recent sales of homes like it nearby.

Pleasant View is a town of owners and houses. About 83% of occupied homes are lived in by their owners. About 72% of all homes are single-family houses on their own lots. Townhomes and other attached homes are about 8%. Buildings of two to four units are about 4%, and buildings of five or more are about 5%. The mix also includes some manufactured homes. Almost no homes are seasonal, and fewer than 4% sit empty.

Most homes are newer than 1990. The median home was built in 2003. About 59% were built in 2000 or later, and three in four in 1990 or later. Only about 6% were built before 1960. A few older homes sit on the original streets near Pleasant View Drive and 500 West. Newer subdivisions fill the rest of the city.

Homes here are big. About 36% have five or more bedrooms. Another 19% have four, and 30% have three. About 15% have two bedrooms. A smaller home is possible, but it is a smaller slice of the market.

The lot rules shape what gets built. City code asks for at least 7,500 square feet of building area on each lot. That area must be on ground under a 15% slope. Flag lots, which reach a street by a narrow strip, are not allowed. The city also considers trail connections when it reviews a new subdivision.

Addresses here carry ZIP code 84414, shared with North Ogden, or 84404, shared with Ogden. Many print Ogden as the mail city. A ZIP code does not tell you the city. The city decides your police, your utility bill, and your tax bill. Check the parcel against the city line before you make an offer.

Shop by price

Shop by kind of home

Want the city in a wider view? Pleasant View on The Local tells more of its story. Ask me how fast homes like the one you want are selling right now. A partner agent I trust in Weber County can walk through recent sales with you.

Sources: U.S. Census ACS 2020 to 2024, and the Pleasant View city code as quoted in the August 2026 Planning Commission packet. Prices shift through the year, so ask me for the latest Pleasant View numbers.

The city has no neighborhood map of its own, so I sorted the areas by the ground. The land climbs from about 4,250 feet by I-15 to over 5,400 on the hillside under Ben Lomond. The areas below run from the low west edge up to the mountain.

• West edgeBy I-15The west edge by I-15, about 4,250 to 4,300 feetThis is the flat low ground. The business park sits on Parkland Boulevard and Rulon White Boulevard. The north side of 2700 North near Exit 349 has a new food strip, listed in the restaurants topic. Purple Sky Winery is here too, and open ground is left for growth. Bona Vista Water serves this side, which the utilities topic explains. The county liquefaction map marks a study zone here, covered in what to check.
• West of US-89Newer flat streetsWest of US-89, about 4,290 to 4,420 feetOrchard Springs Elementary and Pleasant View Park, with its pickleball courts, are here. The streets run out to 1000 West. The old train station site sits near 2700 North. Most homes here are newer subdivisions on flat ground.
• The middleAround City HallElberta Drive, Pleasant View Drive, and 500 West, about 4,330 to 4,520 feetCity Hall and Barker Park sit here, with Weber High, Lomond View Elementary, The Barn Golf Club, and Shady Lane Park. This is where the few older homes are. Most of the rest was built after 1990.
• US-89 and 2700 NorthThe highway and the south edgeUS-89 about a mile west of City Hall, and 2700 North along the south edgeUS-89 runs north and south through the city, with businesses along it. A food plaza sits at 2700 North and 400 West. 2700 North, also called SR-134, forms the south edge toward Harrisville and Farr West.
• The hillsideUnder Ben LomondNorth and east above about 4000 North, about 4,650 to 5,450 feetWadman Nature Park, Pole Patch Drive, and the Bonneville Shoreline Trail start are up here. Lots run larger, in the A-2 and A-5 zones beside the RE-15 and RE-20 streets. RE-15 is the most common zone label on the city zoning map. Slope, snow, and water matter most on this ground.

The ground, the view, and the water change street by street, so the partner agent walks the lot with you. Test any listing that says "Pleasant View" against the city line. Homes just east are in North Ogden, south in Harrisville, and west in Farr West. See North Ogden, Harrisville, and Farr West. The nearby cities topic lists drive times.

A home's school depends on its exact address. The schools topic lists the schools. Want the story on a certain block? Tell me what you are after. I will get it through the partner agent on the ground.

Sources: the Pleasant View zoning map of August 12, 2025, the 2026 Planning Commission notices, USGS elevation data, and state road and boundary layers. Elevations are rounded.

The city covers about 7 square miles, with national forest on the mountain to the northeast and other towns on the other sides. New building in 2026 is small plats, plus a request to grade for new hillside streets. Open ground by I-15 is where the city has room to grow.

Here is what was on the Planning Commission agenda in 2026. An agenda shows a request, not an approval, so ask what has been built.

• West side4058 North 1100 WestAbout 4058 North 1100 WestA plan for 18 single-family lots on 9.46 acres in the RE-20 zone was set for a hearing on October 1, 2026.
• Pleasant View Drive475 West Pleasant View DriveAbout 475 West Pleasant View DriveA preliminary plan for 13 lots was on the July 2026 agenda.
• More platsTwo preliminary platsAbout 3950 North 225 West and 500 West 4300 NorthBoth were listed as preliminary plats in 2026. The agendas do not give a lot count.
• HillsideSkyline DriveEast of US-89 and north of Pleasant View DriveA permit request to grade and remove rock for Skyline Drive and future streets was set for a hearing on October 1, 2026. The request names a future residential development.
• RezonesSmall rezones toward homesSeveral parcels in 2026Small parcels on Pleasant View Drive, 1000 West, and 4300 North asked for zones that allow homes.

Commercial building is by I-15. About 8 acres near 2775 North were rezoned for the Farr West Landing project, which sits mostly in Farr West. The Target at Exit 349 is in Farr West, not in Pleasant View. The shopping topic says more. A veterinary hospital on Fox Meadow Drive and business expansions on Parkland Boulevard and US-89 were also on the agendas.

The 2026 notices name no builder, so none is listed here. The city's water plan, adopted November 18, 2025, projects up to 21,282 people by 2050. That is a projection, not a forecast. The city also updated its subdivision and public works standards in 2026.

Before you fall in love with a lot

1. City and plat.Confirm the city and the subdivision name for the exact parcel.
2. Water for the lot.Ask which provider serves it, and whether a yard water share comes with it.
3. Slope and the 7,500 square foot rule.On the hillside, ask where the flat building area sits.
4. Drainage.Ask where storm water goes, and check for wetland deed restrictions.
5. Hazard maps.Look up the lot for faults, landslides, and liquefaction.

Builders often cover the buyer agent fee, and your agent puts that in writing before you sign. Buying new works differently from buying a resale home, so read how it works before you tour.

Sources: the Pleasant View Planning Commission notices on the Utah Public Notice Website for 2026, and the city water plan adopted November 18, 2025. Plans change. Ask me for the latest status of any project.

Every town has its own list of things to check. None of these should scare you off. They are the questions I would ask about any Pleasant View home. A map or a test can answer each one for a single address, so check them one home at a time.

The state's flood, shallow groundwater, landslide susceptibility, collapsible soil, and rockfall maps show nothing inside the city line. That means these areas are not mapped, and not mapped is not the same as no risk. Ask about water on the lot and about the ground under it.

The top of the hillside is wildland, so the wildfire map is worth a look even with no listed property. Utah state law does not require realtors to verify or disclose geologic hazards. A normal homeowner policy also usually excludes damage from them.

Ask me about any of these on a home you like, and I will tell you what the record shows. Your agent on the ground can set up the radon test and the inspection.

More on inspections

This is general information, not legal, engineering, or insurance advice. Sources: the Utah Geological Survey (fault, landslide, and liquefaction layers queried October 15, 2026), FEMA flood maps, the Utah Department of Environmental Quality (radon, 2019), the Utah wildfire risk portal, and the Pleasant View city code. Have a licensed inspector look at any home before you buy.

Sort the financing before the search. The best first step is to get pre-approved. That means a lender checks your finances and tells you how much you can borrow. It shows what you can spend, and it makes your offer stronger.

If you own a home now, timing matters as much as price. Selling one home and buying another on a set date can be the hard part. A plan for the gap between the two keeps the search honest. Call early, before you tour.

Hill Air Force Base is about 19 minutes south, so VA loans can come up. A VA loan is a home loan for veterans and service members. If it applies to you, it is worth a talk early. The loan guides on this site explain each loan type in plain English.

I am licensed in both real estate and lending. On any one purchase I take one role. If I am your lender, I can tell you early if a home could be hard to get a loan on. A hillside home with slope and grading questions can bring appraisal and inspection questions. So can a lot with secondary water tied to it. Utah Housing Corporation runs statewide programs, so ask about current ones.

One loan type does not apply here. USDA loans are for rural homes, and every Pleasant View point tested sits inside the USDA ineligible area. Conventional, FHA, and VA loans are the ones to look at. In Pleasant View, a partner agent I trust does the work on the ground.

Military buyers

How my dual role works. I am licensed in both real estate and lending. On any one purchase I take one role. Every role is disclosed, and you are always free to choose your own agent and your own lender. In Pleasant View, a partner agent I trust does the work on the ground. The full explanation is on How I Work. This section is general information, not financial, legal, or tax advice.

Pleasant View is a place where people live and then drive to work. Most jobs are south of town, in Ogden and along I-15. The Census counts about 5,475 working residents. About 1 in 5 of them works from home.

A few jobs are inside the city. The biggest is the Rise Baking Company plant, which makes cookies and icings. It has run here since 1994 and covers more than 142,000 square feet. Rise has planned to add about 115,000 square feet. As reported in March 2026, the plan is expected to bring 170 new jobs.

The city also set up a 15-year Community Reinvestment Area for the plant in 2026. That is a city plan that sets part of the new property tax from a site aside for the project. The school district, the county, and the fire district agreed to take part in August 2026. A business park sits on Parkland Boulevard by I-15.

What residents do for work

Source: Census ACS, 2020 to 2024, about 5,475 employed residents. These are six of the largest industries. Many other industries have smaller counts.

Hill Air Force Base is about 19 minutes away, near the Roy gate. Ogden has more of the region’s big employers. The Ogden jobs topic covers them, including the Business Depot Ogden industrial park.

With so many people working from home, the internet at the exact address matters. The internet topic covers it.

Moving for a military job? My military PCS guide covers VA loans and timing. Working remotely? My guide for remote workers in Utah covers what to check before you move.

There is no hospital inside Pleasant View. Hospital care is south in Ogden, and a walk-in clinic is next door in North Ogden. It helps to know that split before you pick a doctor.

The nearest Level I trauma centers are in Salt Lake County, about 50 minutes south. For a true emergency, call 911. Check your insurance network for the clinic and each hospital before you choose a provider.

Pleasant View is in the Weber School District. The district had 30,968 students on October 1, 2025. Elementary school is kindergarten to grade 6. Junior high is grades 7 to 9, and high school is grades 10 to 12.

Schools inside the city

That is three district schools. Weber High has a full-time school resource officer from the city police.

Junior high

No junior high sits inside the city. Most addresses feed Orion Junior High in Harrisville. Some west-side addresses feed Wahlquist Junior High in Farr West. The district decides by address, not by city line.

Student counts come from the Utah State Board of Education for 2025 to 2026. Which school an address feeds is set by the district’s boundary tool.

Watch the mailing city when you look up a school. The state school file prints Ogden for Weber High and Lomond View, but both sit inside Pleasant View. A school’s mailing city does not tell you which town it is in.

Boundaries change, so confirm the school for any address with the district before you write an offer. I do not rate schools, and I would be wary of anyone who says which one is best. The links below go to the district and to independent sites.

Ratings and boundaries come from independent third parties and the district, not from me.

No. There is no campus inside Pleasant View. Weber State University and Ogden-Weber Technical College are both in Ogden. Weber State is about 11 miles from City Hall, a drive of about 18 minutes.

Weber State is a public university with a long list of degree programs. The University of Utah is in Salt Lake City, about 50 minutes south, and Utah State is in Logan, about 47 minutes north.

Times are map estimates in normal traffic. Rush hour changes them.

Traffic here is a commute question more than a town question. The average trip to work is about 24 minutes (Census, 2020 to 2024). About 72 in 100 workers drive alone, and about 1 in 5 works from home. About 18 in 100 spend 45 minutes or more getting to work.

No public count says how crowded the roads are at rush hour. Before you buy, drive your own route to work at the hour you would go.

The roads that matter

US-89 runs north and south through the city, about a mile west of City Hall. It leads north to Willard, Perry, and Brigham City, and south toward Ogden.

2700 North (SR-134) is the south edge of the city. It leads west to I-15. The city line touches I-15 on the west edge, but Exit 349 sits just over the line in Farr West. From City Hall it is about 6 minutes.

Local streets you will hear about are Pleasant View Drive, Elberta Drive, 500 West, 1000 West, 4300 North, and Weber High Drive.

If you drive up Ogden Canyon this winter, allow extra time. Ogden planned a one-lane closure for pipeline work from about late October 2026 to April 2027. Dates can change, so check before you go.

A little, but it is a small part of daily life. Fewer than 1 in 100 Pleasant View workers ride transit to work. Most people drive. No train stops in the city today.

FrontRunner once stopped in Pleasant View. Trains ran to the city from 2008 until August 10, 2018, the day of the last train. It had the lowest ridership on the line, and UTA cut the stop. Some route lists online still name the Pleasant View station that closed in 2018. Do not buy here counting on a train coming back.

Times and routes change, so check rideuta.com before you build a routine on any of them.

Details come from UTA timetables (the 630 for April 2026, and the FrontRunner timetable for fall 2026). Schedules change.

Not in town, but there is a small one close by. Ogden-Hinckley Airport (OGD) is about 15 minutes from City Hall. Breeze Airways flies from there to Orange County, California, about twice a week. Check the airline for days and times.

For most flights, people use Salt Lake City International (SLC). It is about 55 minutes south by car, about 48 miles.

Pleasant View sits on the hillside at the north end of Weber County. Mountains are to the east, and the flat low ground runs west toward I-15. These are the drives people ask about most, from City Hall at 520 West Elberta Drive.

Here are more drives from City Hall.

The Divide road to the Ogden Valley can close in winter. Then the way to Nordic Valley is down through Ogden Canyon, about 33 to 37 minutes. Powder Mountain by the canyon takes about 42 to 47.

These are map estimates in normal conditions, not official figures. Add time for snow and rush hour, and check your own route.

Going somewhere else? Look up any Utah drive between 138 towns.

Most of your setup goes through one office. Pleasant View City Hall is at 520 West Elberta Drive, and the phone is 801-782-8529. Start service by filling out the city’s Utility Application. The city asks for a $100 deposit.

Check the city site for current fees and hours. The city does not run its own power company. Gas service is Enbridge Gas Utah, the company once called Dominion Energy.

What the city bill looks like

The city’s fee schedule, as of October 13, 2026, sets the monthly fixed charges for a house. They add up to about $105 before any water use. Water use adds to that. The price per 1,000 gallons starts at $1.25 and steps up as you use more, to $7.00 above 84,000 gallons.

Yard water is a separate bill from a different provider. The taxes topic and the cost of living topic have the wider budget picture.

Police, fire, and the library

The Pleasant View Police Department is at City Hall. It has 13 full-time officers. The non-emergency number is 801-395-8221. For an emergency, call 911.

North View Fire District covers fire and ambulance. Station 22 is in the city at 370 West 4300 North. Station 21 is in North Ogden. There is no library in the city. The Weber County North Branch is in North Ogden.

Call Blue Stakes at 811 two business days before you dig.

For general information only. This is not tax or financial advice. Tax rates and home prices change. Consult a qualified professional for guidance specific to your situation.

Fiber is reported on most Pleasant View streets, from more than one company. Connext fiber shows at most points checked, and Xfinity cable shows at all of them. Some parts of town also report fiber from All West, Quantum Fiber, UTOPIA, SenaWave, and CenturyLink.

The far west edge by I-15 shows no fiber. There the state map lists copper phone-line internet and cable only. Optic Loop is a fixed wireless service here, not fiber.

Source: the Utah Broadband Center provider map, checked in October 2026. This list is what the companies report, not speeds or prices. A company listed on a map may still not reach a given house.

For cell service, look at each carrier’s own coverage map for the address.

Moving day is only the start. Here is the short list for your first 90 days in Pleasant View, in a sensible order.

1. Turn on the utilitiesFill out the city’s Utility Application. A west-side address may get its drinking water from Bona Vista, plus a city bill for sewer and trash. Then start Rocky Mountain Power and Enbridge Gas Utah. Do this a week before you move in.
2. Find out who supplies yard waterAsk which provider serves the lot, and whether the share transfers to you. Learn the season and rules before the first hot week.
3. Get your Utah driver licenseThe Driver License office for Weber County is in South Ogden. The state site lists the office hours and appointments.
4. Check the emissions ruleWeber County requires an emissions test to register most cars. The old tailpipe test ended October 1, 2026, for the cars it covered. The notes below say where to check your car.
5. Register your carUtah gives you 60 days after you make a permanent home here. The DMV office is in Ogden. Pass an emissions test first if your car still needs one.
6. Test for radonRadon is a natural gas from the ground. The home checks topic has the local numbers. Test every house.
7. Claim the primary home exemptionUtah taxes a primary home on 55% of its value. The taxes topic explains it.
8. Register to voteDo it through the county, online at vote.utah.gov or in person with ID. The site lists the deadlines for each election.
9. Sign up for schoolConfirm the school for your address with the district, then register. The schools topic explains the boundaries.

The emissions test

Weber County is one of five Utah counties that require an emissions test for most cars. Salt Lake, Davis, Utah, and Cache are the others. Electric cars are exempt. The county ended its old tailpipe test on October 1, 2026, for the cars it covered. The DMV system may still ask for a test on some cars, so check before you register.

Rules and office hours change. Check each office before you go.

There is no supermarket inside Pleasant View. The weekly grocery run goes east to North Ogden, about 5 minutes away. Only the big stores sit south, toward Ogden.

Inside the city

Two fuel-stop stores sit on 2700 North. Purple Sky Winery is on Parkland Boulevard by I-15. The city’s food places are on 2700 North, and the restaurants topic names them.

A Target is being built across 2700 North in Farr West, near Exit 349. It is not open. It is in Farr West, not in Pleasant View.

The ZIP trap

Addresses in the city print 84414 or 84404, and many print Ogden as the mail city. Store pages show the same mix. Trust the city line, not the ZIP, when you ask where a store is.

Store lists change. Store locations come from each store’s own pages, OpenStreetMap, and the Census geocoder, so check an address before you drive out.

Pleasant View climbs from flat ground by I-15 onto the hillside under Ben Lomond Peak. The trails start at the top edge of the city. A county park and two lakes lie within about 40 minutes. The city also runs four parks of its own.

From City Hall

• Wadman Nature Park~4 min
• Shoreline Trail at Pole Patch Drive~8 min
• North Ogden Divide trailhead~13 min
• Willard Bay State Park~20 min
• Pineview Reservoir~24 min
• North Fork Park~38 min

Ben Lomond Peak

Ben Lomond is about 9,700 feet high. The Forest Service record says 9,712 feet. It was named for Ben Lomond in Scotland. A local story ties its shape to the Paramount Pictures logo. That is a story, not a fact.

Hikers pick one of three routes. The Trails Foundation of Northern Utah (TFNU) rates the peak moderate to difficult.

TFNU also runs a Peak Challenge, and Ben Lomond is one of its four peaks. It runs from early June to late October. Check the foundation for the year's fee.

The Bonneville Shoreline Trail

The built north end of this long hillside trail is on Pleasant View's upper hillside, near Pole Patch Drive. From there to the North Ogden Divide is 4.65 miles. The climb is 732 feet, and the high point is 5,750 feet. TFNU says the trail mostly follows the power lines. It takes hikers, bikes, horses and dogs.

No agency posts a street address, a parking lot or a fee for this trailhead. Read the trail group's access notes before you go. The trail committee has also reported one gap through the Pole Patch area that is still in planning.

North Fork Park, Willard Bay and Pineview

North Fork Park is a Weber County park near Liberty, on 2,600 acres. It has about 132 first-come campsites, yurts and trails. It is open from the first weekend of May to mid October. In winter, groomed trails open for Nordic skiing.

Willard Bay State Park has a North Marina and a South Marina. You can boat, swim, water ski and fish, and in winter you can watch eagles. It is open 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. Day use costs $25 a vehicle in season, which runs from Easter to Labor Day, and $10 off season. Check the algae notice before you go.

Pineview Reservoir is the Ogden Valley lake, up Ogden Canyon. Ogden City is replacing an old water pipe under it. The reservoir is lowered to a work pool from September 2026 to February 2027, and the city's site says refill is expected in January 2027. The Anderson Cove and Cemetery Point ramps cannot be used, and Port Ramp is closed through 2026. Check the water level before you plan a boat day. The traffic topic covers the Ogden Canyon road work planned for this winter.

The four city parks

The city lists four parks. All four are inside the city line.

• ParkBarker ParkElberta Drive, beside City HallIts full name is Henry J Barker Park. It has a pavilion and an orienteering course. The summer food trucks park here.
• ParkPleasant View ParkPleasant View DriveTen lighted pickleball courts, a bowery and the spot for free summer movies.
• ParkShady Lane ParkAbout 600 West 3000 NorthA neighborhood park with a bowery.
• ParkWadman Nature ParkAbout 385 West 4300 NorthOn the hillside side of town, with a bowery. About 4 minutes from City Hall.

The ten pickleball courts are free to play on when no one has reserved them. The four East Courts can be reserved for $20 per 2 hours, and mornings are open play only. Boweries at Barker, Shady Lane and Wadman are reserved by phone from May 1 to September 30. They cost $50 a day for residents and $100 for others. The bowery at Pleasant View Park is first come, first served. The city runs youth sports in house, from T-ball to basketball.

Sources: TFNU, Weber County Parks, the Utah state parks site, Ogden City's pipeline page (updated October 12, 2026) and the city's park page. Drive times are map estimates from City Hall at 520 West Elberta Drive. Trail access, fees and ramp status change, so check before you go. I do not rate trails.

No national park is close to Pleasant View. Arches is about 5 hours away. Zion, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands and Capitol Reef are longer drives, so plan an overnight stay for any of them.

The one national park site you can reach in under an hour is Golden Spike National Historical Park, near Promontory. The nearest wild places on an ordinary weekend are the mountain behind town, North Fork Park and Willard Bay. The outdoor recreation topic covers all three.

The Arches time is a map estimate from City Hall. Check each park's own site for hours, fees and closures.

Three resorts sit above the Ogden Valley, on the other side of the mountain. Pleasant View is not a ski town, but the lifts are close. The road you take matters. The North Ogden Divide is the short way in summer. When the Divide road is closed, every trip goes through Ogden Canyon and takes longer.

Snowbasin usually opens around Thanksgiving, and Powder Mountain usually opens in mid December. Each resort posts its own date, so check before you plan a trip.

Plan on the winter drive when you think about a ski habit. A trip over the Divide is a bonus in good weather. The traffic topic covers the Ogden Canyon work planned for this winter.

Drive times come from the router table for City Hall. Openings move every year, so confirm them with the resort before you plan around one.

The Barn Golf Club is inside the city, at 305 West Pleasant View Drive. It is about 3 minutes from City Hall. It has 18 holes, a driving range, two practice greens, a snack bar and a pro shop. It is privately owned and open to the public. The club has been around since the 1960s.

Ogden City runs two public courses. El Monte Golf Course is at 1300 Valley Drive, about 16 minutes away. Mt Ogden Golf Course is at 1787 Constitution Way. Farr West, next door, has the Remuda Golf Course. See the Farr West page for it.

Course details come from each course and Ogden City. Check for current rates, hours and conditions. I do not rank courses.

Pleasant View's food is new and small. It sits in two clusters on 2700 North. One is at US-89 and 400 West. The other is at the freeway end, on the north side of the road from about 1100 to 1860 West. Nothing to eat is on the residential hillside.

The mix is mostly quick service, plus a barbecue place, an Asian kitchen and a winery restaurant. The south side of 2700 North at Exit 349 has more chains, but that side is in Farr West. For sit-down variety, such as Historic 25th Street, go to Ogden. North Ogden has Kirt's Drive-In, open since 1964, about 5 minutes east.

Six places inside the city line

• BarbecueLost Texan BBQ1144 West 2700 NorthTexas-style barbecue with sides made daily. Closed Mondays.

Each one is open in 2026 by its own site or page. This is a list of facts, not a ranking, and no one paid to be listed.

For breakfast, The Slop Shop is a family-owned spot at 420 West 2700 North. Little Caesars is on the same road, at 1146 West 2700 North. For groceries, hardware and the big store runs, see the groceries and shopping topic. Prepared food carries the 8.45% restaurant sales tax.

Hours and menus change, and small places come and go. Check before you drive. I do not rank restaurants.

Pleasant View's own list is the hillside trails, four parks, a golf course and a small set of free city events. For more, Ogden is about 13 minutes south. Ogden Canyon opens east to the Ogden Valley and Pineview. The outdoor recreation topic covers the trails and parks, and the events topic covers the six free city events. The restaurants topic covers Purple Sky Winery, and the golf topic covers The Barn.

Ogden

Historic 25th Street has shops and restaurants. Union Station, about 14 minutes away, holds the Utah State Railroad Museum and the Browning museums. It is open Wednesday to Saturday, 11 to 4. Peery's Egyptian Theater is about 13 minutes away. In summer, Ogden Twilight puts on concerts at the Ogden Amphitheater. Dinosaur Park, the Treehouse Museum and the Eccles Art Center are in Ogden too.

The fairgrounds, Lagoon and Antelope Island

The Golden Spike Event Center is the Weber County fairgrounds, about 11 minutes away. The Weber County Fair usually runs in early August. Lagoon, an amusement park in Farmington, is about 34 minutes away. Antelope Island State Park, out in the Great Salt Lake, is about 40 minutes away. It costs $15 a vehicle and is open all year, 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. Bison live on the island.

The hot springs

Utah Hot Springs lies just past the city's northwest corner, on the county line. The water is about 137 degrees and very salty. The resort closed about 1970, and the springs have no public access. Treat it as a landmark, not a place to visit. The Local has the story.

Hours, prices and shows change. Check each venue before you go.

The arts scene inside Pleasant View is thin. The city has no theater or gallery of its own that a source lists. The city events are outdoors, such as free movies in the park and a car show at Founders Day.

The nearest stages are in Ogden, about 13 minutes south. The entertainment topic names them. The Local covers the downtown venues, and also the Browning Center and the Dee Events Center at Weber State University.

Venues and seasons change. Check each one before you plan around it.

The city runs six free events a year. Founders Day is the biggest. It is usually held on a Saturday in late June, and the 2026 one fell on June 27. The city posts updates on its Facebook and Instagram pages. The overview tells the town's story.

Founders Day

The parade starts at 10 a.m. The 5K starts at 7 a.m. on the canal road above Weber High School. It runs down to Barker Park, where a breakfast waits at the pavilion. The day also has a kids bike parade, a car show, and pickleball and volleyball tournaments. No rodeo or fireworks are listed.

Pleasant View sits at the north end of the Ogden area. North Ogden is east, Harrisville is south and Farr West is southwest. Willard and Perry lie north up US-89, across the county line in Box Elder County. The drives below start at City Hall.

Over the mountain

The Ogden Valley holds Pineview Reservoir and the three ski areas. Ogden Valley became its own city on January 2, 2026. The ski topic lists the drive times. In winter, when the Divide road is closed, the same trips go through Ogden Canyon and take longer.

Day trips

Willard Bay State Park is about 20 minutes away. The Hill Aerospace Museum, by Hill Air Force Base, is about 19 minutes south. Antelope Island State Park lies out in the Great Salt Lake, about 40 minutes away. Ogden and North Ogden are the two nearest towns for a longer outing.

Drive times are map estimates from City Hall at 520 West Elberta Drive, in normal traffic. They are close, not exact.
