Alpine Utah General Information
Alpine Utah Information: Alpine is a small bedroom community located in the foothills
of Mount Timpanogos in northeastern Utah County. Most Utah
County residents consider it a great place to live. "There
is nothing big about Alpine, but everybody that lives here
likes it," a lifelong resident and City Councilman stated.
In fact, a 1999 Dan Jones & Associates poll showed that
Alpine was voted the number one place Utah County residents
would choose to live if they were to move somewhere else in
the county With a median age of 21 and an average household size of
4.54, Alpine households are some of the youngest and largest
in the County. A steadily growing community,
Alpine's average annual rate of population change from
1990 to 2000 was 7.4%.
Origin of Cities Name: Alpine Utah
Settled in the fall of 1850 by cattlemen W.H. Hooper,
Quincy Knowleton, and George M. Burgess, the community was
originally called Fort Wordsworth, after William S.
Wordsworth. It was later named Dry Creek Settlement
and Mountainville. The name was changed to Alpine at
the time of incorporation because the area reminded
Brigham Young of the Swiss Alps.
Date of Incorporation: January 19, 1855.
Alpine Utah Information
Alpine is part of the Provo-Orem, Utah Area.
The population was 9555 at the 2010 censu.
Alpine has been one of the many quickly-growing
cities of Utah since the 1970s, and especially the
1990s. Real Estate prices have increased over the
years. Since 2007 the prices have declined but
buyers still love Apline and continue to buy in the
decline. It is located on the slopes of the
Wasatch Range north of Highland and American Fork.
The west side of the city also runs above the
Wasatch Fault. The city is so named because when it
was first settled, the Latter-day Saint Prophet
Brigham Young visited and said the town reminded him
of the Swiss Alps.
