What it’s like
The place. Orangeville is a small city where nearly everyone owns the home they live in, a much higher share of owners than is usual across the country. Typical home values sit at a moderate level, and winters are cold, with January the coldest month and a fair amount of snow, while summers turn properly hot in July. Rain and melted snow add up to a dry year overall.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, the building trades and shops close behind. Few people work from home, and fewer adults hold a four-year degree than in many places. Across Sanpete County, the largest workplaces include Snow College, Sanpete Valley Hospital and Walmart, and the county has added jobs over the past year.
Things to do. Huntington State Park is a short drive away and is the nearest protected area on the list. A longer drive brings you to Manti–La Sal National Forest, a large area of public forest, and to the USU Eastern Prehistoric Museum, a museum of the region's ancient past.

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 Sanpete County.
