Early members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) founded many cities and towns, the majority of which are still thriving today. These towns are located in the mid-west and western United States, as well as a handful in Canada and Mexico. You can find these early Mormon cities in western Illinois, southern Wisconsin, western Missouri, southern Idaho, northern Arizona, eastern Nevada, nearly the entire state of Utah, and scattered throughout California, southern Canada, and northern Mexico.
