  • Park City & Summit County Utah
    ECONOMIC PROFILE Park City & Summit County Utah Prepared by Park City/Summit County Chamber of Commerce Convention & Visitors Bureau Economic Services Department P.O. Box 1630 ~ Park City, UT 84060-1630 800.453.1360 ~ 435.649.6100 ~ fax 435.649.4132 INTRODUCTION Summit County is located directly east of Salt Lake City in a geographic area known as the “Wasatch Back,.” referring to the backside of the Wasatch Mountains. Occupying a landmass of 1,871 square miles, it is home for more than an estimated 35,651 people with a population density of 19.1 individuals per square mile. Park City is the center of the county’s population, containing within its boundaries 23 percent of the total. Other major cities (Coalville, Kamas, Oakley, Frances and Henefer) house an additional 16 percent. The Snyderville Basin (an area adjacent to Park City) is home for approximately 61 percent of county residents. Utah escaped the national economic downturn in the early 1990’s and benefited tremendously from the economic difficulties suffered by the nation and many states – particularly California. Because of its relatively diverse economy, Utah remained healthy, acting as a magnet drawing new residents and businesses from neighboring states and throughout the nation. Consequently, numerous economic records were shattered as its population, industries, and employment grew. In fact, up until the fall of 2008, the state economy continues to set records for the longest sustained period of economic expansion it its modern economic history. Summit County and Park City joined the state in this economic boom. For example, since 1995, county population has grown from 24,000 to an excess of 35,000 – an increase of nearly 42 percent earning it the accolade as the seventh fastest growing county in the state in 2004.

  • Park City History -- Summary
    PARK CITY HISTORY -- SUMMARY Long before Park City became a world class mountain resort town and venue for the 2002 Olympic Winter Games, it was famous as a silver mining town, and boasts a lively and colorful past. Founded by prospectors in the late 1860s, Park City continued to mine silver until the early 1970s. The mining company, Park City Consolidated Mines, started the ski business in 1963, when they built the first lifts on what was then called Treasure Mountain. The Park City area now has three world class resorts: Park City Mountain Resort, Deer Valley Resort, and Canyons Resort. UTAH BEFORE PARK CITY 1847 Brigham Young and the Mormon settlers pass near the north end of the valley on their way to Salt Lake City. 1850 Parley Pratt’s toll road leads from Parley’s Park westerly into the Salt Lake Valley, collecting $1,500 from travelers en route to the California gold rush. 1862 Brigham Young’s “City by the Salt” is booming and Federal troops from California under Colonel Patrick Connor are sent to guard the stagecoach lines and watch over the “Saints,” who might side with the Confederacy in the Civil War. Figuring that a find of valuable ore would bring in outsiders and dilute the Mormon population, Col. Connor sends soldiers prospecting. 1863 Utah’s first mining claim is filed in Bingham Canyon west of Salt Lake Valley. SILVER DISCOVERY DRAWS A CROWD 1868 In late October soldiers climb over the mountains from Big Cottonwood Canyon to the Park City area and find silver.
