Health Indicator Report of Utah Population Characteristics: Historical Population Estimates

Knowing the numbers of people in a population is important to understand the need for public health and related services. These numbers are also needed for calculating rates of the many important measures of the public's health. Population estimates help in planning for future public health needs.
