Utah's Dixie is the nickname for the moderately populated, lower-elevation area of south-central Washington County in southwestern Utah. Its climate is very mild when compared to the rest of Utah, and typical of the Mojave Desert, in which it lies. Situated south of the Black Ridge and west of the Hurricane Cliffs, in the northeastern edge of the Mojave Desert, it was originally settled by the Southern Paiutes. When recently won from Mexico, it was inhabited by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or Mormons in 1854, as part of Brigham Young's efforts to establish an Indian Mission in the region. During the later 1850s, the settlers began growing cotton and other temperate cash crops in the area of Santa Clara, Utah.
