Economy:
Utah is currently undergoing an economic renaissance of sorts, as it attempts a transformation from a farming- and natural resources-based economy into a modern corporate power. According to the State New Economy Index, Utah is the top state for “economic dynamism,” a reflection of its increasingly global, technology-driven economic expansion. Mining and fossil fuels are both still major industries in the state. Since Utah hosted the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, tourism has boomed. Utah has five national parks including Zion and Bryce Canyon and hosts the Sundance Film Festival.

Noteworthy:
St. George, Utah, was the fastest growing city in the country from 2000-2005.
