As a truck driver, I have passed St. George, Ut., the last city on Interstate 15 before crossing to Arizona, and Nevada towards Las Vegas. Since about 70%(?) of UTAHans are Mormons, we may presume that the majority of St. George Residents are Mormons. But there are several Churches of different Christians denominations sprouting in SG here and there. Mormon Temples are distinguishable by their architecture with the Angel Moroni on top of one of the spire. Another Answer: As a Mormon who has lived in Utah for 21 years and was married in the "Mormon" Temple in St. George, I can tell you that yes, there are a large number of Mormons in St. George. It was originally a Mormon Pioneer settlement. The oldest temple still used by the church is located in St. George, however, it does not have an Angel Moroni on the top. That tradition did not start until the Salt Lake Temple was built.
It is true that there are several churches of different Christian denominations in Saint George, and there are plenty of people who live there that are not members of the Mormon Church.
