LIME REALTY GROUP wants to share this article with you!!!  It’s from USA Today’s website and it reveals that based on new estimates from the Census Bureau, St. George is the fastest growing metropolitan area in the United States!

In 2017, figures put the total number of people living in the designated metro area at 165,662.  That’s up 4% from 2016.  Interestingly, most of the growth experienced in the state of Utah is from natural growth or to put it more plainly, births.  But in St. George, people are moving in.  Not only retirees from Northern Utah and Southern California, but from an increasingly diverse cross-section of new workers, students and others.

Historically, St. George growth mirrors the growth experienced in Las Vegas.  But it seems now, the Southern Utah mecca has found its own steam and is drawing residents without the influence of Las Vegas or the rest of Utah.

This is huge news.  In 2016, we were #6.  To leapfrog all of the other areas to #1 is an awesome task and certainly a reflection of the outstanding people already living here, the amazing communities and all of the other wonderful things that make this such a unique and interesting place to live.

We’re proud to be part of this growth and community!  Rest assured, Lime will continue to be the clear choice for real estate in Southern Utah no matter what happens.
