2023 Map of Saint George

About this map

St. George and Washington anchor this 2023 survey of southwest Utah, where the urban expansion of the Sunbelt meets the dramatic geological formations of the Mojave Desert. The map documents a complex landscape of residential growth pushing against historical agricultural zones like Saint George Fields and Washington Fields. High-altitude features such as the Red Hills, West Black Ridge, and Middleton Black Ridge create natural boundaries for the sprawling suburbs of Middleton, Bloomington, and Little Valley. The Virgin River and its tributaries, including Fort Pearce Wash and Halfway Wash, carve through the basin, while significant modern infrastructure like the St George Regional Airport and Dixie State University reflect the area's development as a regional hub. Local history is preserved at the Washington County Court House and within the quiet grounds of the Saint George City Cem and Tonaquint Cem.
