Homes Under $500,000 in West Bountiful, Utah
West Bountiful sits at the southern edge of Davis County, about 12 miles north of downtown Salt Lake City and a few minutes off I-15 and Legacy Parkway. It's a small, mostly residential city with large lots, some leftover agricultural zoning, and a handful of horse-friendly properties along 800 West and 1100 West. That setting is why homes under $500K are a real conversation here: most single-family homes in West Bountiful now sell above that mark, so this price range tends to mean older ramblers, split-levels, townhomes, and smaller two-story homes that need updating.
Buyers in this range are usually first-time purchasers, downsizers, or commuters weighing West Bountiful against Woods Cross, Clearfield, or Layton. You get Davis School District schools, quick access to the Salt Lake refineries and Hill Air Force Base corridor, and Bountiful's shopping and Wasatch foothill trails a short drive east. Trade-offs include occasional rail and freeway noise and, on the west side, proximity to the Great Salt Lake lowlands and industrial areas. Inventory here is thin and moves quickly when a well-priced home hits, so it helps to check often and have financing ready.

Common questions
About homes under $500k in West Bountiful.
How many homes under $500K are usually available in West Bountiful at any given time? ▾
Inventory is genuinely tight — it's common to see only a handful of active listings in West Bountiful under $500K, and sometimes zero detached single-family homes in that range. Townhomes and condos make up a larger share at this price. Setting up MLS alerts is the realistic way to catch new listings before they go under contract.
What kind of home does $500K actually buy in West Bountiful? ▾
Most often a 3-bedroom rambler or split-entry from the 1970s–1990s in the 1,800–2,400 sq ft range, sometimes with an unfinished basement. Newer construction at this price is rare since most new builds in the area are priced higher. Updated kitchens and finished basements push homes above $500K quickly.
How do property taxes work in West Bountiful? ▾
West Bountiful is in Davis County, and effective property tax rates typically run around 0.55%–0.70% of market value with the primary residence exemption. On a $475,000 home that's roughly $2,600–$3,300 per year. Exact rates vary by tax district and year.
Is West Bountiful a good commute to Salt Lake City? ▾
Yes — it's one of the reasons demand stays high. Downtown SLC is about 12–15 minutes via I-15 or Legacy Parkway outside of rush hour, and the Woods Cross FrontRunner station is just south of the city for a train option. Salt Lake City International Airport is roughly 15 minutes away.
Which schools serve West Bountiful? ▾
West Bountiful falls under Davis School District, with most kids attending West Bountiful Elementary, Millcreek Junior High, and Bountiful High. Davis is one of the larger and better-rated districts in the state, which is part of why homes here hold value even at lower price points.
Should I expect to compete with multiple offers under $500K here? ▾
On well-priced, move-in-ready homes, yes — anything clean and under $500K in West Bountiful tends to draw multiple offers within the first few days. Fixers and dated homes sit a bit longer and give buyers more room to negotiate. Being pre-approved and ready to tour the same day a listing hits matters at this price point.
