Demographics

More and more Utahns are having fewer and fewer babies.

Utah doesn’t look the same as it did 20 years ago, becoming more diverse, older and less religious.

Six key factors, identified in a new report from the Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute, have influenced how the state has grown in recent years.

A new analysis from the Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute shows a sizable increase in parents between the ages of 25 and 29 between 2020-2021.

New laws targeting LGBTQ+ people are proliferating in GOP-led states, but the conversations often lack a clear understanding of how many people will be directly affected. Data collection on the number of LGBTQ+ people living in the U.S. has been relatively scant.

Between 2020 and 2060, the percentage of Utahns over 65 years old is projected to double, and communities across the state have to prepare to meet their needs.

Utah’s higher ed schools have seen record freshman classes recently and the wave of college-age Utahns is only part of the story.
