Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) make up a part of every state's population. Most states are about 1% Mormon, with western states often having higher Mormon populations and eastern states having lower Mormon populations.
Mormons were among the very first white settlers in Utah, Idaho, Arizona, Nevada, and California. Mormons have always made up a majority of the population in Utah, where the headquarters of the Church is located. Today about 60% of the residents of Utah are practicing Mormons, with 10-20% more being non-practicing Mormons and former Mormons.
The early settlers throughout much of Idaho, Utah, and Arizona were Mormons, and they still have high Mormon populations today. The first Mormons, however, settled in New York, Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois, which have pretty low Mormon populations today.
