>> Main Page Utah is a western state of the United States. It was the 45th state admitted to the United States, in 1896. Approximately 80% of Utah's 2.7 million people live along the Wasatch Front, centering around the state capital of Salt Lake City. In contrast, vast expanses of the state are nearly uninhabited, making the population the sixth most urbanized in the United States.

The name "Utah" is derived from the Ute Indian language, meaning "people of the mountains".

Utah is known for being one of the most religiously homogeneous states in the Union. Between 58% and 72% of people in Utah are reported to be members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (also known as the LDS Church or Mormon Church), which greatly influences Utah culture and daily life.

The state is a centre of transportation, information technology and research, government services and mining as well as a major tourist destination for outdoor recreation.
