Enoch, Utah
Enoch is a city in Iron County, Utah, United States, and is located approximately 7 miles (11 km) northeast of Cedar City in the northeast part of Cedar Valley. The population was 7,374 at the 2020 census, up from 5,803 at the 2010 census. As of 2018, the estimated population was 7,039.
Enoch was founded by Joel H. Johnson. It was originally known as Johnson's Springs and Fort Johnson.
Enoch was originally settled as part of an iron mission along with Cedar City and Parowan. The area was originally known as "Fort Johnson" and "Johnson Springs", after Joel H. Johnson, the earliest known white settler, who came to the area in 1851 with his family. In 1890, the area's name was changed to "Enoch", to avoid confusion with another settlement in Utah also named Johnson Springs. Enoch was officially incorporated on January 10, 1966, absorbing nearby Grimshawville, Stevensville, and Williamsville. The present name is after the Order of Enoch.
In June 2011, a new stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was created. There are now the Enoch and Enoch West stakes. The dividing line is Minersville Highway.
In August 2021, the city sustained heavy flooding. The mayor of Enoch declared a state of emergency and the Red Cross set up a shelter to help citizens who were displaced by flooding in their homes. Iron County's emergency management coordinator reported that about 200 homes were damaged.
On January 4, 2023, a man shot and killed his wife, five children and mother-in-law before killing himself. His wife had recently filed for divorce.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 7.2 square miles (18.7 km2), all land. Enoch is bordered to the south by Cedar City. Interstate 15 forms the southeastern border of Enoch, with access from Exit 62 to the south and Exit 71 to the northeast. I-15 leads north 245 miles (394 km) to Salt Lake City and southwest 175 miles (282 km) to Las Vegas.
The climate in this area has mild differences between highs and lows, and there is adequate rainfall year-round. According to the Köppen climate classification system, Enoch has a marine west coast climate, abbreviated "Cfb" on climate maps.
