Greater St. George Area

Greater St George includes the communities of St George, Washington, Santa Clara and Ivins. The furthest of these cities Ivins is located about 10 minutes to the west of downtown St George, but is touching upon Santa Clara, which is touching upon the Dixie part of St George. St George has a history involving the Mormon pioneers settling here under mandate of prophet Brigham Young to settle the area.  Cotton was one of the things that they grew and so that is where the name Dixie originated as an abreviation for St George. Some locals may associate Dixie as one of the neighborhoods of St George that is just west of St George through a fairly narrow valley between two neighboring local hills. Washington lies just northeast of St George and includes a some significant stores and business local to St George, like Costco, Home Depot and Wal Mart. Washington has an older downtown area just like St George and dates back to ealier days. Santa Clara has an older downtown area skirting along and beside the Santa Clara River and has an early pioneer historic site, Jacob Hamlin's home. The newer part sits up out of the river bed valley on a plateau and features the Snow Canyon school system.
