Local Economy & Lifestyle

Life in Toquerville

Toquerville, settled in 1858, is one of the oldest towns in Southern Utah and retains a distinct small-town, agricultural character even as growth from St. George and Hurricane reaches its edges. Many residents commute to jobs in the larger cities nearby.

Historic adobe and rock homes along Toquerville's Main Street sit alongside newer development, with large lots, mountain views, and a slower pace than its faster-growing neighbors.
