Heber city, UT in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Heber city is a mid-size town in Utah, with 17,438 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #50 of 334 ranked by population — larger than 85% of them. The median age here is 28.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Heber city earn a median of $107,784 a year, 37.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 17% above the $91,818 median for the 170 Utah cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 5.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Heber city is valued at $571,300, 88.3% above the national figure and 31% above the $437,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,862 a month, 32.4% above the national figure, or roughly $22,344 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.7% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 80% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

A median age of 28.4 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address.
