There are most definitely more members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) living in Utah than in Arizona.
Membership records released by the Church show that as of January 2013, there were 1,951,937 Mormons living in Utah and 404,261 Mormons living in Arizona... meaning that Utah has four times more Mormons than Arizona does.

What towns in Utah are more Christian than Mormon?
First of all, members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) are Christian, they are just not Protestant or Catholic Christians.No towns in Utah have more 'Christians' (Protestants and Catholics) than Mormons. There are towns that have more non-Mormons than Mormons, but not all of the non-Mormons are Christian. Many of them are not religious or belong to other faiths such as Islam, Judaism, or Buddhism.

What is the shape of Utah when Mormons arrived?
Utah didn't exist when the Mormons arrived. The land was actually part of Mexico. They made their own state called "Deseret" a couple years after arriving, which looked like a blob and covered what is now California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming, Idaho, and Oregon. (you can see a map at the "Related Link" below. 5 years after the Mormons arrived in the area, the United States government had obtained the land due to the Mexican War, and rejected the proposed state of Deseret, making the Territory of Utah in 1851. Utah Territory was smaller than Deseret, but larger than the current state of Utah. The current boundaries were set in 1868, 21 years after the Mormons arrived in the area.

Most people do not hate Mormons, the Osmonds are very popular Mormons singing family. The State of Utah hosted the Winter Olympics a few years ago.

On the whole Mormons who have one spouse at a time are very popular.

Is Salt Lake City where most American Mormons live?
I live in salt lake and would say it has the largest concentration of mormans as percentage of total population. But most mormans in the US live out of slc. Out of utah in fact. ---------------- No, definately not. While Salt Lake City is the headquarters of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church), most American Mormons live outside of Utah. (There are 6,060,000 baptized Mormons in the United States, and 1,884,000 of those live in Utah.) So, less than 1/3 of American Mormons live in Utah. Most Mormons in Utah live outside of Salt Lake City. The city itself is actually quite liberal and diverse, and the homes are small and expensive compared to the rest of the state. The suburbs surrounding Salt Lake City are where the majority of Mormons in Utah live. Some of the suburbs are more than 90% Mormon. About 80,000 of the 6,060,000 American Mormons live in Salt Lake City, which is just over 1.3%.
Are there more Mormons in Salt Lake City Utah or Boise Idaho?
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) does not publish membership statistics for any area smaller than a state. However, I do know that the Salt Lake City metro area has many more Mormons (both in actual numbers and percentage) than the Boise metro area. I would assume, with Salt Lake City proper having a higher population and being the headquarters of the Church, that it has more Mormons than Boise.
