It maintains the F-35, F-22, F-16, A-10, C-130, T-38 and the Minuteman III ICBM. Its fact sheet says it employs more than 8,100 military, civilian and contract personnel in 155 job series[14]. That fact sheet was last updated in January 2021, so the current count may differ.

Utah and your FERS annuity
Utah's retirement credit (code 18) is worth up to $450 per person. It applies only if you were born on or before Dec. 31, 1952, and it phases out above $25,000 of modified AGI for single filers or $32,000 for joint filers[15]. Most people retiring now will not qualify, so ask a tax professional how your annuity will be treated.
Cost of living
BEA puts the 2024 price level for the Ogden-Clearfield metro at 100.3, where 100 is the U.S. average[1].
