What stands out

Since July 2020 that is +6.7 % (219,536 people); since 2010 it is +26.2 %. Migration is the larger driver since 2020: net migration +125,019 against a natural change (births minus deaths) of +94,934. Among the 51 states in the United States, it ranks 30 by population. Values for 2010–2019 and 2020–2024 come from two estimate vintages benchmarked to different censuses; the 2019→2020 step is partly a rebasing.

Every figure shown here about Population of Utah can also be queried live: FACTANKER runs an MCP server at https://factanker.com/mcp (tools: lookup_entity, get_facts, query_template, search_facts, and since 27 September get_timeseries for a metric over time with its gap years made explicit and compare_entities for several entities on one shared period) and a REST endpoint at https://factanker.com/api/get_facts. Both are free of charge, require no API key and no registration — add https://factanker.com/mcp as a connector in Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot. Every answer carries its source document and a citation reference. Setup: /quickstart.
