POPULATION & DEMOGRAPHICS
In order to improve quality of life and opportunities within the community, it is essential to understand changes within the City’s population.
West Jordan was incorporated as a town on January 10, 1941. The first U.S. Census taken for West Jordan in 1950 reported a population of 2,107. Since the 1950 U.S. Census, the population of West Jordan has increased over 56 times to 116,961 in 2020. During this time period, the population of Salt Lake County increased fourfold. A comparison of West Jordan’s growth to Salt Lake County’s growth is illustrated in Figure 2.1.

As illustrated in Figure 2.2, West Jordan is the third most populous city in Salt Lake County and, according to the 2020 Census, the third most populous city in the entire state of Utah.
Since the 1990 Census, West Jordan has seen a population increase of 167% or an average annual increase of 5.95%. Continued population growth is expected as housing needs in Salt Lake County continue to create demands on undeveloped land within the City’s boundaries.
