Weber County has long been the crossroads of Utah and the Intermountain West. Its eastern boundary is the spine of the Wasatch Mountains, with their towering peaks and sharp valleys. In the west, it extends into the Great Salt Lake. Both mountains and flatlands are laced by the Ogden and Weber Rivers and their tributaries. Weber County is the second smallest county in land mass and the fourth largest in population in the State of Utah, with a population now approaching 275,000 residents. There are fifteen incorporated cities within Weber County. Of that number, Weber County Sheriff's Office provides all direct law-enforcement services for seven of those cities.
