Underground aquifers, reservoirs from streams, rivers, etc. Northern Utah gets a fair amount of snow as well. There are around 2.9 million people living in Utah[1]. There is also a fair amount of agriculture in the state, especially up north, which uses most of the water in the state[2]. States like Arizona and New Mexico are much more arid.

- jmnicolas 13y agoVery interesting links thank you. I was very surprised about the "racial" statistics in the first link. In my country (France) it's unlawful to make this kind of statistics.
- gms7777 13y agoWait, its illegal to take take racial demographic statistics in France? I find that really surprising. I went and tried to look up French census information, but alas, I could only find it in French. I can however find estimates of racial demographics in France on wikipedia and such.
- jmnicolas 13y agoYes it's illegal. What you probably found was people's country of origin but not their race (or it was not a French survey). Even hinting about it will get you labeled as a racist.
