Settlements in Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, California, Nevada, and Arizona are still thriving today, while those in the east were destroyed as the Mormons were kicked out by mobs and government sanctions. Some settlements in the west were abandoned due to difficult living conditions, lack of water, etc. But many still survive.

There were several Mormon settlements throughout the midwest, it is difficult to determine which might have been first because they were largely settled around the same time. After leaving Kirtland, Ohio, major settlements were established in Independence, Missouri and Nauvoo, Illinois. Smaller settlements were located in the areas around these cities.
