Utah

Utah is the fastest-growing and youngest state in the country, shaped by its founding Mormon (Latter-day Saint) settlers, a booming Silicon Slopes tech corridor south of Salt Lake City, and dramatic red-rock national parks. It consistently ranks among the top states for job growth, fiscal health and quality of life.
