Moving here Pleasant View
Five schools inside the limits, thirteen police officers, a shared fire district, and a library branch in the next city
Moving to Pleasant View, where the postal city proves nothing.
Five Weber School District schools sit inside these city limits, including the county's largest high school, and not one of them carries a Pleasant View postal city on the state's own record. Two schools widely associated with the city are in other municipalities. The city runs its own police department with thirteen full time officers and its own culinary water. Fire comes from a district shared with two neighbours. And there is no library branch and no senior centre in Pleasant View at all: the ones this city uses sit across the line in North Ogden.
My own ground is Iron and Washington counties at the bottom of the state, a long way south of this bench, so these pages are researched rather than lived. What is on them came from the bodies that issue it: Pleasant View City's own history, events, facilities and police pages, its adopted Ordinance 2025-25 as published by the Utah Division of Water Resources, the Bonneville Shoreline Trail Committee's region pages and its 2023 status report, the Trails Foundation of Northern Utah, the Utah Geological Survey's geothermal record, the Forest Service's Ogden Ranger District trail records, the transportation department's own route file, the Census Bureau's boundary and survey tables, the state population committee, the state board of education through the state school layer, the Weber County parcel extract, the North View Fire District and the Weber County Library System. Every figure carries the day it was read, and where four bodies name one place four ways, all four are printed. A Weber and Morgan partner agent takes the ground level work.
The short answer
The first thing to settle about a Pleasant View address is that the postal city on a record here proves nothing about jurisdiction. Five Weber School District schools sit inside these city limits, including the county's largest high school, and not one of them carries a Pleasant View postal city on the state's own school record. Two schools widely associated with this city sit in other municipalities. The city runs its own police department with thirteen full time officers from 520 W Elberta Drive. Fire and ambulance come from a district shared with two neighbours, with its Station 22 inside the city. There is no library branch and no senior centre in Pleasant View; the ones this city uses are both in North Ogden. Checked 21 August 2026.
The live question
Which schools are actually in Pleasant View, and why does none of them say so?
Five, and the reason none of them says Pleasant View is that postal cities and municipal boundaries are two different systems that happen to share a map. The state's own school layer, sourced from the Utah State Board of Education for the 2025 to 2026 year and queried on 21 August 2026, records five Weber School District schools whose locations test inside Pleasant View city limits: Weber High for grades ten to twelve at 430 W Weber High Dr with 1,915 students; Orchard Springs for prekindergarten to grade six at 3300 N 975 W with 440; Lomond View School for prekindergarten to grade six at 3644 N 900 W with 401; and the district's two online programmes, for grades nine to twelve and grades seven and eight, both at 330 N 975 W.
Read the postal city column on those five records and you get Ogden, Pleasant View, Ogden, Pleasant View and Pleasant View. The largest school in the county sits inside this city and its record says Ogden. That is not an error in the record; it is what a postal address is for. The Weber County parcel extract corroborates the boundary result independently, because the parcels along Weber High Drive carry Pleasant View as their parcel city.
The traffic runs the other way as well, and this is where lists go wrong. Orion Junior High at 370 W 2000 N is in Harrisville, not Pleasant View. Majestic School at 425 W 2550 N carries an Ogden postal city and is in Harrisville. Wahlquist Junior High and Farr West School are both in Farr West. And a charter academy at 2505 N 200 E is in North Ogden. Every one of those turns up in descriptions of schooling for this city, and every one of them is somewhere else.
The practical instruction that follows is short and this companion will not soften it. School assignment for a specific address is set by the Weber School District's own boundary tool and it changes; this page states what is inside the city limits and rates nothing. Enrollment figures here come through a state mapping layer rather than from a file downloaded from the board of education, so cross check them at the board before leaning on any of them. And the one school with two published addresses is Weber High, which appears as 430 W Weber High Dr on the state school record and as 2650 N 450 E on a separate state education network record.
Do not settle a school question in this city from a postal address, a school name or a list, because all three point the wrong way here. Five schools sit inside these city limits and three of them print Ogden or a neighbouring city somewhere on their own records. Two more that carry this city's name in general circulation are in Harrisville and Farr West. One of the five, Weber High, has two different published addresses across two state systems. And Lomond View is the name of a school here and of a park in the next city along, which is the kind of coincidence that puts a household in the wrong municipality on a search. The only body that settles assignment is the Weber School District, through its own boundary tool, against the exact parcel, before an offer rather than after. This site does not rate schools and would steer anybody away from a page that does.
The five inside
Five schools in seven square miles, and the newest of them is missing from every description of this city.
Every school below tests inside Pleasant View city limits against the state municipal boundary layer, using addresses and enrollment from the state school layer sourced from the Utah State Board of Education for the 2025 to 2026 year, queried 21 August 2026. The postal city column is printed because it is the thing that misleads people, and the enrollment figures carry a caution rather than a claim.
| The school | Grades | Address as recorded | Postal city on the record | Enrollment |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weber High | 10 to 12 | 430 W Weber High Dr | Ogden | 1,915, the largest school in the district |
| Orchard Springs | Prekindergarten to 6 | 3300 N 975 W | Pleasant View | 440, in a school the state record dates to an opening of 1 July 2019 |
| Lomond View School | Prekindergarten to 6 | 3644 N 900 W | Ogden | 401 |
| Weber Online | 9 to 12 | 330 N 975 W | Pleasant View | Not reported |
| Weber Online | 7 to 8 | 330 N 975 W | Pleasant View | Not reported |
Point in polygon results against the state municipal boundary layer, corroborated for the high school by the Weber County parcel extract, which records the Weber High Drive parcels with Pleasant View as their parcel city. Enrollment figures come through a state mapping layer rather than from a file downloaded from the Utah State Board of Education, so treat them as indicative and cross check at the board before printing them anywhere. This site does not rate schools; boundaries, programmes and third party ratings are yours to review against what matters to your household.
Orchard Springs is the entry worth pausing on. It is a 440 student school for prekindergarten to grade six, at 3300 N 975 W, inside these city limits, with a Pleasant View postal address, and the state record gives it an opening date of 1 July 2019. It is also absent from this site's own practical city guide, which names only one elementary school for this city in two places including inside its question and answer schema. A seven year old school of that size is not a footnote, and any description of schooling here that names one elementary is describing the city as it was before 2019.
The second thing the table shows is scale. A city of about eleven thousand people holds the largest school in a district of nearly thirty one thousand students, because Weber High draws from well beyond these city limits. That is why a page about this city cannot treat its high school as a local amenity: it is a district facility that happens to sit here, and the traffic, the parking and the calendar that come with it belong to the whole north end of the county.
The district context belongs in the same breath as the numbers. Weber School District enrollment was 30,968 at the Utah State Board of Education's count on 1 October 2025, down from 31,747 the year before. Statewide enrollment fell in the same year as well, from 667,789 to 656,311. So the direction here is a state pattern rather than a story about this district, and that is the whole of what this page will say about it.
The five that are not in Pleasant View, resolved by boundary test
Orion Junior High at 370 W 2000 N is in Harrisville. Majestic School at 425 W 2550 N carries an Ogden postal city and is in Harrisville. Wahlquist Junior High at 2656 N 2400 W is in Farr West. Farr West School at 2190 W 2700 N is in Farr West. And Maria Montessori Academy, a charter, at 2505 N 200 E is in North Ogden. All five were tested against the state municipal boundary layer on 21 August 2026.
Naming them is not pedantry. Several of them serve addresses in this city under the district's boundaries, and a household should know which municipality a building is in before drawing conclusions about anything else attached to it, from the drive to the door to whose council decides what happens on the street outside. Assignment is the district's answer and it changes; jurisdiction is the county's answer and it does not.
The civic file
One parcel holds the city offices, the police department and the park, and a district three cities wide sends the ambulance.
Pleasant View City is at 520 W Elberta Drive, Pleasant View, UT 84414, on 801-782-8529, and that single address does more work than it looks like. The Weber County parcel extract records the site as serial 170590004, 19.47 acres, tax exempt, local government, with buildings dated 1950, 1950, 1997, 2001, 2012, 2012, 2013 and 2020. The city offices, the police department and Henry Barker Jr. Park all sit on that one parcel, which is why the same address turns up for all three and why two of the city's six annual events are held on the same ground as its council chamber.
The police department is the city's own, which is not universal in towns this size. Its own department page, read 21 August 2026, gives the chief of police as Stetson Talbot, the address as 520 W Elberta Dr in the city office complex, administration on 801-782-6736 and twenty four hour non emergency dispatch on 801-395-8221, and records thirteen full time police officers handling approximately 9,000 calls annually. Those are the department's own staffing and workload figures, published on its own page, and both are carried here exactly as it gives them.
Fire and ambulance are not the city's. They come from the North View Fire District, whose own service description names North Ogden, Pleasant View and Harrisville, on 801-782-8159. Its Station 22 is inside this city, at an address the district prints as 370 West 4300, Pleasant View, without a compass letter, staffed by five personnel, a captain, a driver engineer and three firefighters, with a 2017 Pierce Freightliner pumper, a 2019 ambulance and a 2006 brush truck. Station 21 is at 315 E 2550 N in North Ogden. One honesty note: the three city service statement comes from the district's service description rather than from a published boundary map, and the district's own Station 22 page does not say which city the station serves.
What the city does not have is a library or a senior centre. The Weber County Library System runs five branches and the one serving this area is the North Branch at 475 E 2600 N, Ogden UT 84414, on 801-337-2650. The parcel test puts that address in North Ogden, on serial 181500001. The North View Senior Center at 485 E 2550 N is in North Ogden as well, on serial 181500004, and Pleasant View City links to it from its own website. Both are a short drive east and neither is in this city, and one small warning about names: the library system also runs a Pleasant Valley Branch, which is a different place entirely at the other end of the county.
The details
Getting there
Elberta Drive carries the whole of this city's own government on one address. What that address cannot answer is school assignment, which belongs to the Weber School District's boundary tool, and the parcel, zoning and tax area questions, which belong to Weber County. Fire and ambulance belong to the North View Fire District on 801-782-8159, and the library and the senior centre this city uses are both in the next municipality east.
Before you go
- Start with the drinking water provider for the specific lot, because the municipality is not automatically it. Three systems hold ground in this corridor and the council's own adopted wording stops short of claiming every address inside the line.
- Then ask whether the lot carries an irrigation connection at all, who operates it and whether it transfers with the sale. Three separate organisations hold acreage nearby and none of them was tested against this boundary lot by lot.
- Ask the Weber School District which building a specific address feeds, rather than reasoning from a postal city or a school name.
- Ask Weber County for the certified tax area rate for the parcel. This page prints no property tax rate because the certified Pleasant View rate was not read in this research.
The numbers
One value figure, one tax rate, one tenure split and a travel time distribution, each labelled exactly.
The one market figure on this page is the census survey's, and it is labelled as what it is. The median value of owner occupied housing units in Pleasant View city is 593,400 dollars, with a margin of error of plus or minus 42,177, from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey five year estimates for 2020 to 2024, table B25077, retrieved 21 August 2026. That is a survey estimate of what owners report their homes to be worth rather than a sale price, and the margin is about 7.1 percent of the estimate. For context from the same release, Weber County's comparable figure is 426,700 dollars, so this city sits roughly 39 percent above its county. Everything about listings, the value ladder, inventory and current conditions belongs to the practical city guide and is deliberately not repeated here.
The tenure split from the same release is straightforward and carries no interpretation. Of 3,329 occupied housing units in this city, 2,768 are owner occupied and 561 are renter occupied, from table B25003. And the travel time distribution, from table B08303, counts 4,413 workers aged sixteen and over who do not work from home, of whom 618 report a trip of 45 to 59 minutes and 189 report 60 minutes or more. This page reports the distribution and stops; who those workers are is not a subject here.
The combined sales and use tax rate for Pleasant View is 7.25 percent, from the Utah State Tax Commission rate chart served on 21 August 2026 and labelled Combined Rates 2026-01. That label matters: it is the first quarter 2026 chart, read in the third quarter, so confirm the current quarter's chart before relying on the figure. No property tax rate appears anywhere on this page, because the certified tax area rate for Pleasant View was not read in this research and Weber County sets rates by tax area rather than by city.

The neighbours
Three city lines within a mile of most addresses here, and half the things this city uses are across one of them.
Pleasant View is bounded by North Ogden on the east, Harrisville to the south east, Farr West to the south west and the Box Elder County line along the top, and for a household that geography matters more than it does in most Utah cities, because a great deal of what a Pleasant View address uses sits on the far side of one of those lines. The library branch and the senior centre are in North Ogden. The junior high most of this city feeds is in Harrisville. The freeway exit is signed with Farr West first. And the nearest commuter rail platform is six miles south in the county seat.
That is not a deficiency, it is the shape of a small city at the top of a built valley, and it has a practical consequence worth naming: the everyday radius of a Pleasant View household crosses municipal lines constantly, so a buyer weighing this city is really weighing this corner of the county rather than this city alone. The neighbouring practical guides are the place to compare them, and the region index gathers what The Local has written about the wider two counties.
The one line that behaves differently is the northern one. Along the US-89 corridor, Pleasant View's city limit and the Box Elder County line are effectively the same line, within about fifty feet on the state boundary layers, so crossing north there changes the county, the address grid and the assessor rather than just the city. The page on the springs works through what that means where the two lines meet, and the trailhead page follows the same boundary east to the point where the built trail stops.
The rest of this corner of the county, and where to read about it. The Local carries companions to the two municipalities this city shares a fire district with, North Ogden on the east and Harrisville to the south east, and the practical guides with the prices and the market picture sit at the North Ogden city guide, the Harrisville one and Farr West to the south west. The Weber and Morgan index on The Local gathers the six shared subjects for both counties, from the canyon and the two resorts to the reservoirs, the listed street, the two river trails and the peak above this bench. And for the mountain itself, the page on the peak and the bench carries every trail, route and trailhead in the range, written once for every city underneath it rather than repeated by each of them.
Living with it
A small city that runs its own police force and its own water, and borrows almost everything else from its neighbours.
What a Pleasant View address asks comes down to five things and it has not changed across seven pages of research. Which culinary water system serves the parcel, because the city itself says it serves most of its corporate limits rather than all of it. Whether the lot has a secondary irrigation connection and which of three organisations runs it. How high on the bench the property sits, in a city that climbs about a thousand feet from its western edge to the trail at the top. What the certified tax area rate is at the county, because Weber County sets rates by tax area rather than by city. And whether the household is comfortable with a place where the library, the senior centre, the junior high and the nearest railway platform are all in somebody else's city.
What it gives back is equally specific. Its own police department, thirteen officers strong, in a city of eleven thousand. Its own culinary water from four wells and two developed springs. A fire district station inside the limits. Four parks and six free events run by the city itself. Five schools inside seven square miles, including the district's largest. A mountain that fills the eastern sky and holds snow into early summer. And the north end of the longest built run of the Bonneville Shoreline Trail in Utah, at the top of the streets, free and gateless.
The document to read before an offer is not a listing. It is Ordinance 2025-25, adopted 18 November 2025, in which the city projects 21,282 people at build out in 2050 and states plainly that anticipated demand exceeds anticipated supply, then names wholesale purchase as its intended answer. That is the city describing its own future in its own adopted words, and nothing else published about this place comes close to it for usefulness.
Everything else in this companion is a piece of the same picture: the trail at the top of the streets, the hot water on the county line, the view the city was named for, the four parks and the six events, and the roads and the rails.
Five schools inside seven square miles, and not one of them puts this city's name on its own address. That single fact explains most of what goes wrong in descriptions of this place.

Five Weber School District schools, on a boundary test against the state municipal layer using the state school record for the 2025 to 2026 year. Weber High for grades ten to twelve at 430 W Weber High Dr, with 1,915 students, the largest school in the district. Orchard Springs for prekindergarten to grade six at 3300 N 975 W, with 440, which the state record dates to an opening of 1 July 2019. Lomond View School for prekindergarten to grade six at 3644 N 900 W, with 401. And the district's two online programmes at 330 N 975 W, for grades nine to twelve and grades seven and eight. Assignment for a specific address belongs to the district's own boundary tool.
Because a postal city and a municipal boundary are two different systems. Of the five schools inside these city limits, the state school record prints the postal city as Ogden for Weber High and for Lomond View School, and as Pleasant View for the other three. That is what a postal address is for, and it is not an error. The Weber County parcel extract corroborates the boundary result independently, recording the Weber High Drive parcels with Pleasant View as their parcel city. The rule for this city, and the reason this page leads on it, is that the postal city on a record here proves nothing about jurisdiction.
Yes, and it is missing from most descriptions of this city. The state school record places it at 3300 N 975 W with a Pleasant View postal city, gives it prekindergarten to grade six with 440 students, and dates its opening to 1 July 2019. Its location tests inside Pleasant View city limits. This site's own practical city guide names only one elementary school for the city, in two places including inside its question and answer schema, which describes the city as it was before 2019. Any description of schooling here that names a single elementary is out of date.
Five that come up constantly. Orion Junior High at 370 W 2000 N is in Harrisville. Majestic School at 425 W 2550 N carries an Ogden postal city and is in Harrisville. Wahlquist Junior High at 2656 N 2400 W is in Farr West. Farr West School at 2190 W 2700 N is in Farr West. And Maria Montessori Academy, a charter, at 2505 N 200 E is in North Ogden. All five were tested against the state municipal boundary layer on 21 August 2026. Several of them serve addresses in this city under the district's boundaries, which is a separate question from which municipality the building sits in.
Yes. The city's own department page, read 21 August 2026, gives the chief of police as Stetson Talbot, the address as 520 W Elberta Dr in the city office complex, administration on 801-782-6736 and twenty four hour non emergency dispatch on 801-395-8221, and records thirteen full time police officers handling approximately 9,000 calls annually. Those staffing and workload figures are the department's own and they are the only two this companion prints. A city of about eleven thousand people running its own department rather than contracting the service is worth knowing as a structural fact about the place.
The North View Fire District, on 801-782-8159, whose own service description names North Ogden, Pleasant View and Harrisville. Its Station 22 is inside this city, at an address the district prints as 370 West 4300, Pleasant View, without a compass letter, staffed by five personnel, a captain, a driver engineer and three firefighters, with a 2017 Pierce Freightliner pumper, a 2019 ambulance and a 2006 brush truck. Station 21 is at 315 E 2550 N in North Ogden. One caution: the three city service statement comes from the district's service description rather than a published boundary map, and the Station 22 page does not state which city it serves.
No. The Weber County Library System runs five branches and the one serving this area is the North Branch at 475 E 2600 N, Ogden UT 84414, on 801-337-2650, open Monday to Thursday 10 am to 9 pm, Friday and Saturday 10 am to 6 pm, and Sunday 1 pm to 5 pm from September through May. The parcel test puts that address in North Ogden rather than Pleasant View. One naming caution: the same system runs a Pleasant Valley Branch, which is a different place entirely at the other end of the county and is not this city's branch.
593,400 dollars, with a margin of error of plus or minus 42,177, as the median value of owner occupied housing units in the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey five year estimates for 2020 to 2024, table B25077, retrieved 21 August 2026. That is a survey estimate of what owners report their homes to be worth rather than a sale price, and it covers the whole city rather than any part of it. Weber County's comparable figure from the same release is 426,700 dollars, so this city sits roughly 39 percent above its county. Current listings and market conditions belong to the practical city guide.
Of 3,329 occupied housing units in this city, 2,768 are owner occupied and 561 are renter occupied, from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey for 2020 to 2024, table B25003, retrieved 21 August 2026. That is a tenure split rather than a statement about anybody, and this page prints it as a count and leaves it there. From the same release, table B08303 counts 4,413 workers aged sixteen and over who do not work from home, of whom 618 report a trip of 45 to 59 minutes and 189 report 60 minutes or more.
Five schools, thirteen officers, and a library card you use in the next city.
Pleasant View asks a short and answerable list of questions, and every one of them is settled by a public body rather than by a listing. Which culinary water system serves the parcel, because the city says it serves most of its corporate limits and not all. Whether the lot has secondary irrigation and who runs it. How high on the bench the property sits, in a city that climbs about a thousand feet end to end. What the certified tax area rate is, because the county sets rates by tax area rather than by city. And which building the district actually assigns a specific address to, which is never a question to answer from a postal city or a school name. Tell me which addresses are on your list and I will introduce you to a Weber and Morgan partner agent who works this bench, and stay on the file for the financing side.
