Homes Under $500,000 in Stockton, Utah
Stockton sits at the south end of Tooele County, just past the Rush Valley hills, about 45 minutes from Salt Lake City by way of SR-36 and I-80. It is a small town of roughly 600 to 700 people, and that size shapes the market. Inventory is thin, and a good share of what sells here is older single-level homes, manufactured homes on acreage, and a few newer builds on larger lots. Under $500K, buyers in Stockton can often get land that would cost far more in Tooele, Lehi, or anywhere along the Wasatch Front, where the same budget tends to buy a townhome or an older rambler on a small lot.
Expect quiet streets, open views toward the Oquirrh and Stansbury ranges, and well or small-system water in some areas, so utilities are worth checking early. Winters are colder and windier than in the Salt Lake Valley, and summer days run hot and dry. Kids attend Tooele County School District schools, and most commuters head to Tooele, Salt Lake County, or the Mercur and Dugway job centers. Many buyers here want a shop, a horse setup, or a few acres, and the sub-$500K range is where those goals are still reachable. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market and how lot size compares with price.

Common questions
About homes under $500k in Stockton.
What kind of home can I actually get in Stockton for under $500K? ▾
Most listings in this range are 3-4 bedroom single-family homes between roughly 1,400 and 2,400 square feet, often on lots of a quarter acre or larger. You'll also see some manufactured homes on land and the occasional fixer on acreage. Compared to Tooele or Stansbury Park, the same budget tends to stretch to more land here.
How long is the commute from Stockton to Salt Lake City? ▾
Plan on about 55-65 minutes to downtown SLC via SR-36 and I-80, depending on traffic at the Lake Point interchange. Commutes to the Tooele Army Depot, Stansbury Park, or Lake Point industrial jobs run 15-30 minutes. Winter weather over the pass can add time, so a reliable vehicle matters.
Can I keep horses or livestock on Stockton properties in this price range? ▾
Many lots in and around Stockton are zoned to allow horses, chickens, and other livestock, but it varies by parcel. Always confirm zoning with Tooele County before assuming — some subdivisions have CC&Rs that restrict animals even when county zoning would allow them.
Is water a concern when buying in Stockton? ▾
It can be. Some properties are on culinary water through Stockton Town, while others rely on private wells with separate water rights. Secondary (irrigation) water isn't universal here. Make sure your offer addresses water shares and well status, especially on larger lots.
How does Stockton compare to Tooele or Erda for buyers under $500K? ▾
Stockton typically prices a bit lower than Tooele proper and noticeably lower than Erda, which has trended toward larger custom homes. The trade-off is fewer services in town — most shopping, schools beyond elementary, and medical visits happen in Tooele, about 10 minutes north.
How much inventory is usually available under $500K in Stockton? ▾
Stockton is a small market, so active listings under $500K often number in the single digits at any given time. New listings can sit briefly or move fast depending on condition and lot. Setting up an automated search is the most practical way to catch new ones early.
