How many people move from Ogden to Aurora
The county-to-county table of the Census Bureau's American Community Survey (2016–2020) has no estimate for Weber County, UT to Arapahoe County, CO, but the wider metro table does: about 418 people a year (±434) moved from the Ogden-Clearfield, UT metro area to the Denver-Aurora-Lakewood, CO metro area. The margin of error is as large as the estimate, so read it as a handful of households rather than a count. The other way: about 312 people a year (±190).
At state level, the 2024 survey counts about 5,387 people a year (±1,847) moving from Utah to Colorado and about 5,224 people a year (±1,404) from Colorado to Utah — a net gain for Colorado of about 163 people a year.

Rules that apply to this move
Because the truck crosses from Utah into Colorado, 49 CFR Part 375 applies: a written estimate before loading, no more than 110% of a non-binding estimate collected at delivery, and full-value protection unless you choose released value in writing. See binding vs non-binding estimates and valuation explained.
Before you book Ogden to Aurora
Ask: dedicated or consolidated?
This is the distance where carriers split. A dedicated truck costs more and delivers on a date; a consolidated load costs less and delivers in a window. Decide which you are buying before you compare prices.
Get it binding or not-to-exceed
A non-binding estimate is a guess with no ceiling. On 451 miles the gap between a guess and a weighed load is measured in four figures.
