What Woods Cross feels like
Woods Cross is one of the smaller cities in Davis County, tucked between Bountiful, West Bountiful, and North Salt Lake. Most of the homes are on the west side of US-89 and closer to I-15, so it's a little flatter and a little more affordable than the east bench areas of Bountiful. You'll see a mix of older ramblers, split-levels, and some newer infill projects. The refineries on the west side are part of the landscape here, and I'd rather you know that up front.
Commute and location
This is where Woods Cross really stands out. It has its own FrontRunner station, and I-15 and Legacy Parkway are both right there. Downtown Salt Lake is usually 15-20 minutes by car, and the airport isn't much further.
Schools and community
Woods Cross is part of the Davis School District, and Woods Cross High School is here in the city. I'd always confirm the boundaries for a specific address with the district.
Typical price range
The median single-family sale price in Woods Cross was $589,900 for January through September 2026 (75 sales, UtahRealEstate.com MLS). That's up 7.3% from $550,000 over the same months in 2025. Homes that sold took an average of 69 days on the market. Price ranges vary a lot by neighborhood and home size, so I'd use this as a starting point, not a target.
Who this fits
I think Woods Cross fits buyers who want a south Davis County location with an easy commute into Salt Lake, and who'd like a lower price point than you'll usually find in Bountiful or Centerville.
What makes it worth living in, not just close to things
Part of the appeal is how close everything is. You're a few minutes from downtown Bountiful's restaurants and shops, the Legacy Parkway Trail is nearby for walking and biking, and you can be in Salt Lake for a game or a concert without much of a drive.

If Woods Cross looks like a fit, or you're still comparing it against other cities along the Wasatch Front, I'm happy to talk through the tradeoffs that matter to you: commute, school boundaries, budget, timing, all of it.
