Mapleton, Utah - Information

In its early days, Mapleton was mainly a farming and orchard community. Many early settlers planted cherry orchards on the area's north bench. Now, much of the city's farmland and many of its orchards have been converted into residential subdivisions, and the city is more of a bedroom community.

With a 5% average annual rate of growth, Mapleton has experienced a steady increase of population during the last decade. When compared with other Utah County cities, Mapleton's median age and average household size are about average.

An  outgrowth of Springville, the city was named after the groves of maple trees in the area. It was originally called Union Bench by a group of early settlers who grazed livestock on the bench south of Springville.
Date of Incorporation: April 1, 1948.

The majestic mountain that serves as the city's backdrop is known throughout Utah County as Mapleton Mountain. However, some Mapleton residents call it Sierra Bonita, as named by a group of Ute Indians. The name means beautiful mountain, and geography experts say it is one of the best shaped in the country.
