West Point is a somewhat small city located in the state of Utah. With a population of 10,963 people and just one neighborhood, West Point is the 61st largest community in Utah. West Point has seen a significant amount of newer housing growth in recent years. Quite often, new home construction is the result of new residents moving in who are middle class or wealthier, attracted by jobs, a healthy local economy, or other amenities as they leave nearby or far away areas for greener pastures. This seems to be the case in West Point, where the median household income is $99,226.00.
Housing costs in West Point are among some of the highest in the nation, although real estate prices here don't compare to real estate prices in the most expensive communities in Utah.

Instead, it has a mixed workforce of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, West Point is a city of professionals, sales and office workers, and service providers. There are especially a lot of people living in West Point who work in office and administrative support (15.57%), teaching (9.99%), and sales jobs (8.43%).

Because of many things, West Point is a very good place for families to consider. With an enviable combination of good schools, low crime, college-educated neighbors who tend to support education because of their own experiences, and a high rate of home ownership in predominantly single-family properties, West Point really has some of the features that families look for when choosing a good community to raise children. Is West Point perfect? Of course not, and if you like frenetic nightlife, it will be far from your cup of tea. But overall this is a solid community, with many things to recommend it as a family-friendly place to live.
