Welcome to Community Data from Demography Utah
An online system of community-level demographic, housing, and socioeconomic data, indicators, and profiles.
Demography Utah collects, stores and disseminates a growing selection of demographic, socioeconomic and other data about Utah. This online project, previously called the Utah Community Data Project (UCDP), continues as part of the efforts of Demography Utah. Our demography team is now housed at the Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute, an applied economic and public policy research center in the University of Utah’s David Eccles School of Business. Community Data from Demography Utah provides information on the state’s counties, political districts, cities and towns, and neighborhoods. The data are available to everyone, from everyday people to small businesses to policymakers. Our goal is to democratize data to foster sound policy and strong communities.
UCDP is a partner in A Capital City Education: Cultivating a College, Career, and Civic-Ready Environment in Salt Lake City; A “Multisector, Citywide Collaboration Focused on Education Pathways.”
Salt Lake City
Salt Lake City has long been the central location of Utah’s major religious, cultural, commercial, financial, medical, and educational institutions. Every day, people come to the city to work, conduct business, attend school, worship, shop, play, or visit. The residential, or nighttime, population is about half that of the daytime, and the two populations have contrasting demographic and socioeconomic characteristics.
Housing & Opportunity Analysis
The Housing & Opportunity Assessment tool provides new demographic and economic information for every city and county along the Wasatch Front.
