In 2006 the United
States Census Bureau named St. George,
Utah the fastest growing metro area in America, and Mother Earth News magazine tapped it as a great place in its August/September issue. Situated in Southwestern Utah, the St. George
enjoys hot summers, mild winters, a beautiful red
desert backdrop and close proximity to many tourist
destinations and major cities like Las Vegas and
Salt Lake City. If you don’t live here already,
what’s holding you back?
Quality of life is
the key attraction. With a population of approximately
60,000, St. George Utah offers the best of two worlds
– large city services and small town atmosphere. As
people flee from congested metropolitan areas, they
don’t miss traffic jams and find that St. George’s
shopping, arts, recreation, medical services and entertainment
options meet their sophisticated tastes. Visitors
from cooler climes enjoy mild winters with the opportunity
to golf year round
on many area courses. Water sports are a year-round
opportunity in the waters of nearby lakes and reservoirs,
not to mention
Lake Powell and Lake Mead. The city also has a
trail system that visitors
can use to explore the city and enjoy the landscape.
St. George is also surrounded by many national and
state parks like Snow Canyon
State Park that many people enjoy exploring throughout
the year. With so much to do and so much beautiful
space, St. George is the place for all ages.
