Utah's Dixie

St. George, Utah has been known to be "where the summer sun spends the winter." St. George was settled by pioneers led by Brigham Young as part of a cotton mission in 1861. Although cotton farming was eventually abandoned as a result of a failure to produce at competitive marketing rates, St. George maintained the nickname as “Utah’s Dixie.”

As of 2012, St. George was the second-fastest growing metropolitan area and a popular place for retirement, due to warmer temperatures in the winter. St. George’s climate has also brought tourists to the area for prime golfing conditions and availability of a wide variety of outdoor activities. Residents enjoy average temperatures ranging from 61 degrees to 81 degrees from February to October.

While the summers prove to be hotter than usual—record highs around 115 degrees, St. George is conveniently located near a variety of swimming pools, lakes, national parks, and over 65 miles of urban walking/biking trails.

St. George is also home to several art galleries and museums, and regularly hosts events such as the St. George Marathon (13th largest marathon in the country), the Hunstman World Senior Games, and the Ironman triathlon. Several movies have been filmed in St. George, including: Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Electric Horseman, High School Musical 2, The Flyboys, and Jurassic Park. The city was also mentioned in the season three premiere of Breaking Bad.

Hailing from humble beginnings, St. George has grown to be a bustling metropolitan area enjoying a warm climate, scenic beauty, great family atmosphere, and low crime rate.
