Independence, Utah: commercial real estate data.
Independence is a Census town of 79 people across 30.62 square miles of land, in Wasatch County. 90.9 percent of occupied homes are owned.
Underlined figures are computed by MMCG Analytics, not published by the agency.
This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Independence through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 79 with a margin of error of plus or minus 60, which is 75.9 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.
Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Common questions

Is Independence in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Independence appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as Independence, town of, community 490263, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.
Are the county figures on this page Independence figures?
No, and they are labeled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Wasatch County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Independence.
Is zoning published for Independence?
No. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
