Layton, Urban center in Davis County, Utah, United States
Layton extends across the Wasatch Front between Salt Lake City and Ogden, featuring residential neighborhoods near the Wasatch Mountains at 1326 meters elevation.
The settlement grew from an agricultural community in 1850 to become an independent town in 1902, named after Christopher Layton, a local settler.
