Summary

Sunset is a small city in northern Davis County.  Sunset shares a border with Roy to the north, Clinton to the west, Clearfield to the south, and Hill Air Force Base to the east.  The area of present-day Sunset was first used by Mormon settlers from neighboring settlements as a place to feed and graze livestock during the winter.  Eventually, homes and farms began to spring up in the area.  The community was known as Summit until 1896 when the name was changed to Clinton.  In 1916, a group of residents living in eastern Clinton separated from Clinton and formed their own town, which they named Sunset because of the beautiful views of the sun setting over the Great Salt Lake to the west.  Sunset was officially incorporated in 1935.

Today, approximately 5,300 residents call Sunset home, making this city one of the least-populated communities in Davis County.  Located on only 1.5 square miles of land, Sunset is also one of the smallest cities in size in the entire county.  Though Sunset is small, its location is convenient for residents.  The west gate at Hill Air Force Base is only minutes away, and so is an on-ramp for I-15.  Via I-15, Ogden is only 15 minutes away, while Salt Lake City is approximately 30 minutes the other directions. There are three parks, including a recreation center as well as several amenities within the city. Homes are moderately prices and the cost of living in Sunset is lower than the national average.
