Before you start your journey, take a minute and review what makes Utah a great place to work and play.
What makes Utah real estate worthwhile?
The varied landscape of Utah ranges from lofty mountain peaks to arid plains to fantastic sculpted rock formations. The greatest elevations are found in the northeast reaches of the state, where the majestic granite slopes and deep valleys of the Uinta and Wasatch mountains—part of the Middle Rockies—shape the land. A narrow strip lining the western edge of the Wasatch Range holds the state’s largest population centers and its most fertile soils.
The economy of Utah continued to diversify, and today residents work in a varied array of industries, including aerospace, computer hardware and software, food processing, and printing. Cattle ranching is the foundation of the agricultural sector, but it supports only a small number of people. Mines employ far fewer Utahans than they once did, but they yield a much wider variety of minerals, including beryllium, gold, lead, molybdenum, and silver.
The state’s fine ski resorts and dramatic desert vistas brought increasing numbers of tourists beginning in the 1960s, providing a further boost to the economy. Boaters, campers, and swimmers flock to Lake Powell, one of the largest artificial lakes in the world. Although skiing is the primary winter draw, scores of visitors come in the summer to enjoy sights such as the craggy pink-and-white limestone rock formations of Bryce Canyon National Park in the southwest corner of the state. Pueblo petroglyphs in Canyonlands National Park also attract visitors and tell some of the state’s most ancient natural history in a manner that reflects the striking geography of the state.
