Care to know about this state? Utah's just another lame state. It's not quite as exciting as California, New York, Florida, or Texas. Here's the story from a resident.
It's famous for a few things. Hard to believe I know. Utah is known for: Mormons of course, fry sauce, the 2002 Winter Olympics, David Archiletta, and country music group Shedaisy. Many movies are filmed in Utah. I believe high school musical was filmed here (not a fan or anything). You can find some beautiful views of desert, canyons, a few lakes, and mountains. It's hard to tear apart the seasons and in the winter it is snowy and cold; God it's cold!
Utah is just as diverse as any state; however, among this diversity 3/4 of it seems to occupy one big group. This group includes Mormons, a brainwashed religious group who believe they are the only ones who will end up in heaven and believe they are the only ones with a right to be there, and closed minded, right winged nut jobs. Dare to be different here? There are many nice people, but it's not always a very friendly state. It's full of piss assed, uptight ass holes. Wave to anyone and they'll give you the evil eye it seems.
From what I hear people who grew up in high crime areas feel safer when they move to Utah. Could that be true of any state though? Perhaps it was just the city they were in? Utahns seem to believe it's the "moral fiber" of their state. Positive reactions to outside visitors are basically like "Oh utah. Cool."
That's Utah in a nut shell.
Utah Resident: Welcome to Utah. Are you gay, different, or just not conservative?
Kermit the Frog: I think so.
Utah Resident: (pulls out a gun) Please leave you creature! Thanks and god bless.

1. Some beach during D-Day
2. I live in Utah, RAISED mormon. It blows in Utah. Your whole damn family cannot get the point if you tell them you are atheist, not mormon. You are expected to be that douche who tries to convert everyone. You are expected to got to BYU. This state is pretty much run by the LDS. The government won't legalize MEDICAL marijuana, but it is trying to allow stray animals to be shot for no reason? Utah has a half-assed government and school system. If born into a mormon family, you HAVE to go to seminary. Everything liberal or open-minded is taboo. It is not a happy state. If you disagree with authority, you are automatically branded as a pot-smoking hippie. Utah will NEVER be mainly democratic, no matter how shitty they know the republican candidates could be. Utah is pretty much an unofficial fascist, totalitarian state. Utah is the worst state in the US, by far.
Me: Hey mom, I am atheist.
Mormon mom: Well you still have to go to church!
Me: Whatever happened to religious freedom?
Mormon mom: ... Oh by the way, where do you want to go in your mission? Have you been saving up?
Me: God, I hate this damn state... SCREW UTAH!

a state nobody cares about, like montana or north dakota that is stuffed full of mormons. it constantly tries to compare itself to colorado in every way, like- salt lake city is a wannabe seattle or denver that's 5x smaller and everyone is mormon.
also, the only state that will NEVER legalize marijuana. ever.
"woah. there are too many mini vans around here."
"yeah dude of course there are. mormons have 11 children each."
"get me the hell outta here."

utah: a place in the u.s. full of very nice people. ok, ok, so maybe utah is a great big "happy valley" but hey. if mormons upset you so much why bug them about it? mormons took a lot of hard blows trying to get to utah. so how about all y'all go crap on some one else like Texas or california? Cuz im pretty sure utah's a lot cleaner and purer than most places in the u.s. you dont have to freak on us mormons just to make yourself feel better. OK
ya utah! go joe smith we owe it all to you baby! woot woot!!!

The 45th state in the United States, it has a lot of Mormons, a nice temple, state regulated liquor stores, and is basically a theocracy. Not everyone from or in Utah is a Mormon, nor do all Mormons have multiple wives. It has 5 state parks, the most in the nation, and is very scenic.
If you would go to Utah, I would avoid Salt Lake City or the Wasatch Range, and instead go to Arches National Park or Goblin Valley State Park.
State run by Mormons that has nothing but temples. If you move here you will fucking regret it. Trust us.
Non-Utahn: So where you from?
Utahn: Im from Utah.
Non-Utahn: Isn't that the place where you can't get a drink at a regular store? i heard everything was closed on sundays.
Utahn: Ummmm....yea
