Скачать или смотреть Utah 2065: Long Term Planning Projections

Utah’s demographic and economic future will be marked by significant growth and change. Over the next four decades, projections indicate Utah’s population to increase from nearly 3.6 million residents to 5.6 million, an increase of 2 million people (the approximate size of Idaho today). Record levels of net in-migration, declining natural change (births minus deaths), an aging population, and continuing urbanization characterize this growth. The Utah economy plays a vital role, with the health care, professional services, finance, and construction industries leading growth through 2065. By the end of the planning horizon, Utah’s population will be larger, older, and more urban, with a service-oriented economy that remains well-diversified.
