What it’s like
The place. Elsinore is a very small town in Sevier County, Utah, where nearly everyone owns the home they live in. Homes here cost somewhat more than the household incomes across the county might suggest, and few adults have a four-year degree. Winters are cold, with January highs a little above freezing and lows well below it, while July afternoons turn hot. Snow falls through the winter, and the year is on the dry side.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with shops, the building trades, and professional and business services also employing many. A small share work from home. Across Sevier County, some of the largest workplaces are Walmart, Sevier Valley Hospital and D&A McRae. Unemployment across the county is a little lower than it was a year ago, and the number of jobs has edged up slightly.
Things to do. Fishlake National Forest and Beaver National Forest are both a short drive away, with protected woodland for walking, camping and time outdoors. Farther afield, a longer drive brings you to Fish Lake, a lake in the mountains, and to the Fremont Indian State Park and Museum, which is worth the trip for its look at the region's early history.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Elsinore’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Sevier County.
