which is an increase of 48,877, or 2.0%,

(that is 254,433 births minus 68,022
deaths) and an increase due to net migration

Much
of the population lives in cities
and towns along the Wasatch Front,
a metropolitan region that runs north-south
with the Wasatch Mountains rising
on the eastern side. The rest of the
state is mostly rural or wilderness.
Utah has a higher
percentage of people sharing a single
religious denomination than any other
state
