"With 2,763,885 people living in Utah according to the 2010 Census, each
district’s ideal population is 36,852. After the 2001 redistricting,
each district’s population was roughly equal. However, growth over the
past 10 years has been extremely uneven. The most populous district in
the 2010 Census, District 56, has grown to 90,503 residents over the
past 10 years. The second most populous is District 52, with 61,341
people. Together, these two districts have enough people to fill more
than four districts."
This shows the shift in population since the last census in 2010.
