Summary

With the beauty of the Wasatch Mountains as a backsplash to this large city in Davis County, Layton, Utah is the perfect place to call home. It was settled as an agricultural outgrowth of Kaysville in the 1850s. It was originally incorporated into Kaysville when it became a city in 1868 but later became an independent unincorporated area in 1902 and officially became incorporated in 1920. The name "Layton" comes from Christopher Layton, a member of the Utah Territorial Legislature in the 1860s and also founded Thatcher, Arizona. The city is a hot spot for retail and shopping as well as dining. The retail district contains Layton Hills Mall with multiple movie theaters, restaurants, and tons of shops and stores. The west end is far more quiet and contains plenty of farm land if that is the lifestyle that suits you. The east end is also significantly quieter than the main city and offers magnificent views of the Great Salt Lake and Wasatch Mountains. Hiking trails are just minutes from the city on the west side of the Wasatch Range, perfect for outdoor enthusiasts who prefer to live in the city. Snowbasin Ski Resort is less than a 30 minute drive for most who live in Layton and less than 45 minutes from Salt Lake City.
