Since 2015, the Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute has produced long-term demographic and economic planning projections for the state of Utah and its counties. These 40-year state and county projections extend from 2020 to 2060, illustrating continued population and employment growth with a range of future changes throughout the state.
The current suite of products includes a research brief, county profiles, dynamic visualizations, downloadable data, and a methodology document. The research links provide access to those resources. For more in-depth dynamic visuals, please click here.
