Property tax · $249/mo 0.53% of value a year — the ACS 2020-2024 median bill over the median home value for Davis County, UT
Insurance & upkeep · $608/mo insurance, maintenance and repairs together, from the BLS Consumer Expenditure Survey — the national figure for mortgaged homeowners, scaled to this market's home value. BLS publishes the three bundled and they cannot be split.
Both are priced off the same month's home value, so they rise with the market. Neither is a quote — a specific home's bill depends on its assessment, its age and its insurer.

What it’s like
The place. Bountiful is a city in Davis County where most homes are lived in by their owners, and the population is younger than in many American towns. Household incomes are somewhat below the county's, and a good share of adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold and very snowy, with January the coldest month, while July brings hot summer afternoons.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, in professional and business services, or in shops. Among the larger workplaces in Bountiful are Lakeview Hospital, Costco Wholesale and Smiths Food And Drug. Unemployment is a little lower than a year ago, though Davis County has slightly fewer jobs than it did the year before, and the usual commute is a short one, with a fair number of people working from home.
Things to do. A short drive away, Hogle Zoo is the nearest of the family outings, and the Natural History Museum of Utah offers a quiet afternoon indoors. Temple Square, a well-known garden and gathering place, is also a short drive away. For winter days, the ski area at Snowbasin is a longer drive.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Bountiful’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Davis County and the Ogden-Clearfield, UT metro.
