The city began to experience rapid growth in the 1970s, when the area that is now West Valley City consisted of the three separate communities of Hunter, Granger, and Chesterfield. These three unincorporated areas merged in 1980 to form the present-day city. During the 2002 Olympic Winter Games, West Valley City was the official venue for men's and women's ice hockey.
