This almanac was produced by Joseph Buchanan at the University of Utah (801) 581-8814. The data comes from several sources including personal research, the Geographic Name Server © 1989, 1990 Merit Inc., Utah state road map and USGS maps. The 1993 population estimates come from the Utah Economic and Business Review (Vol 54, Nos 5 & 6 - May/June 1994), published by the Bureau of Economic and Business Research. The article was written by Natalie Gochnour, Director of Demographic and Economic Analysis, Governor's Office of Planning and Budget. Some elevations and ghost town info came from "Utah Place Names" by John W. Van Cott, Univ of Utah Press; and "Historical Guide to Utah Ghost Towns", Western Pines Publishing. Some information also came from the Utah Travel Council publications about cities in the state.
