Welcome to Utah Real Estate
Utah, named after the Ute Indians, means "of the mountains," an accurate way to refer to the state, which is covered with mountains. It became the 45th state in the U.S. on January 4, 1896. Utah has been fondly nicknamed the "Beehive State," and was settled by the famous Latter-day Saint (Mormon) pioneers. The still-standing Salt Lake Temple is reminiscent of the state's origins. It took forty years to construct and is made from solid granite.
More recently, Utah hosted the 2002 Winter Olympics, and the state is now known for its many excellent ski resorts. The average snowfall in the mountains near Salt Lake City is 500 inches. Utah mountain peaks are also, on average, the tallest in the country.
Those who love winter sports will find that living in close proximity to them comes quite affordably-an average Utah home sold for $188,000 during 2004.
