In fact, the average IT salary in the state is 58% higher than the statewide average nonagricultural wage. Most IT companies in the state are located in Salt Lake County. Utah ranked higher than Arizona, California, Colorado, Washington and the U.S. in IT industry growth (both new businesses and employees) from 2004-2005.
