Utah real estate is a western state and one of the Four Corners states, bordered by Idaho and Wyoming in the north, by Colorado in the east, at a single point by New Mexico to the southeast (at the Four Corners Monument), by Arizona in the south, and by Nevada in the west.
One of Utah real estate's defining characteristics is the variety of its terrain. The Wasatch Range runs down the center of Utah and at the base of it is the Wasatch Front, home to the most populous parts of the state. The major cities of Salt Lake City, the state capital, Layton, Ogden, West Valley City, Sandy, West Jordan, Orem and Provo are located within this region. In the northeastern section of the state, running east to west, are the Uinta Mountains.
Western Utah is mostly arid desert with a basin and range geology. However, the Bonneville Salt Flats are an exception, being comparetively flat. West of the Great Salt Lake, stretching to the Nevada border, lies the Great Salt Lake Desert, the driest, most arid area in Utah.
Much of scenic southern Utah real estate is sandstone and the Colorado River and its tributaries have created some of the most striking and wild terrain in the world. Southwestern Utah is low in elevation and is the hottest spot in Utah.
Eastern Utah is a high elevation area covered mostly by plateaus and basins. These areas are snowy, cold, and for the most part very barren. It has an economy mostly driven by mining and ranching.*
