Fairview was founded in 1859 by James Naylor Jones and about twenty families, and it was originally called North Bend before being renamed in 1864 for the excellent view it commands of the granary extending south beyond Manti, thirty miles distant.

During the Black Hawk War of the mid-1860s, Fairview residents built a thick rock wall ten feet high around the center of town by the end of 1866.

Fairview joined the United Order cooperative movement in 1874, selling 7,500 shares at 10 dollars each, but the order was abandoned in 1876 after poor crops and undercapitalization.

The arrival of the Rio Grande Western Railroad in the 1890s bolstered the town's ability to import equipment and export its surplus goods.

Fairview's first flour mill was built south of town in 1870, and by the start of the 20th century there were half a dozen steam sawmills in the mountains east of town.

Sheep ranching remains Fairview's leading livestock economy, accounting for 46 percent of the farm and ranch operations in northeast Sanpete County.

Fairview's historic structures include the two-story rock school, now a museum, the brick town hall, the Fairview Roller Mills, and the Fairview Museum of History and Art.

Fairview is in the North Sanpete School District and has an elementary school, with North Sanpete High School as the district's comprehensive high school.
