Cost of living, home prices, schools and neighborhoods
Clearfield is a mid-sized Davis County city that serves as a transportation hub and bedroom community for Hill AFB. The FrontRunner commuter rail station anchors the city's transit connectivity, providing direct service to Salt Lake City and Provo. Housing ranges from affordable 1960s ramblers to newer townhome developments near the station. Clearfield's commercial district along State Street provides essential services, and the Freeport Center industrial complex generates local employment. For investors, Clearfield offers a balance of affordability, transit access, and military-driven demand. The city is actively pursuing transit-oriented development around the FrontRunner station, which could lift property values in surrounding blocks over the coming years.

Clearfield's daily rhythm is set by the FrontRunner schedule and Hill AFB shift changes. Commuters walk or bike to the station for SLC office jobs; Hill AFB is a short drive. State Street handles daily errands, groceries, pharmacies, and fast-casual dining. Steed Park is the recreational anchor with a splash pad, sports fields, and summer concerts. Weekends might include a FrontRunner ride to a SLC event, a Freeport Center warehouse sale, or a trip to nearby Antelope Island. Clearfield's Heritage Festival in summer combines a car show, live music, and food vendors in the city park.

Transit-oriented development plans may drive future appreciation
Freeport Center and Hill AFB provide diversified employment
The FrontRunner station is a significant amenity, tenants working in downtown SLC or at the University of Utah can commute car-free in about 55 minutes. Properties within walking or biking distance of the station often command a premium from applicants who want a car-optional commute. As UTA expands service frequency, this advantage should compound. Marketing listings with transit accessibility scores and commute times is effective.
Clearfield has approved plans for mixed-use development around the FrontRunner station, including higher-density residential, retail, and office space. This is a long-term play, construction timelines depend on market conditions and developer commitments. For investors, the transit-oriented development could lift surrounding property values but also introduce new rental supply. Positioning now in the station-adjacent area offers potential appreciation upside, though the timeline is uncertain.
Parts of Clearfield, particularly the western sections, fall within Hill AFB noise contours from military flight operations. F-35 training flights generate significant noise, especially during summer flying schedules. Properties in the higher noise zones may require disclosure and can experience slightly longer lease-up times. Conversely, they're often priced lower, which improves cash-on-cash returns. Many military tenants are accustomed to the sound and view it as a non-issue.
