Richfield is the largest city in Sevier County and is home to over 8,200 residents. Its local economy is strengthened by its industries in gypsum and building material production, food processing and manufacturing and livestock. But most notably, the city's wealth of parks, stunning red rock formations and majestic Pahvant Mountains prove why this region of southern-central Utah is affectionately known as Panoramaland. "It's a peaceful and beautiful valley tucked between blue-tinged juniper and sagebrush mountains to the east and red rock mountains to the west. In the fall, the east mountains have radiantly colored aspen and oak trees," says Tiffany Andersen, a librarian at Richfield Public Library. She also speaks fondly of the Richfield community, remarking that while it's small enough to maintain a friendly hometown atmosphere, it also offers plenty of opportunities for recreation, culture and businesses both big and small. "And, of course, the 5-minute commute to work is great," she adds.

The abundant parks of Richfield speak to its devotion to the great outdoors. Richfield City Park and Rotary Park have playgrounds. There's also a disc golf course at Centennial Park and Cove View Golf Course, which offers a driving range, putting green, and on-site lessons. Richfield is also within a 30-mile radius of several large areas for outdoor recreation. For starters, the relaxing mineral pools of Mystic Hot Springs are only 10 miles away. In Fishlake National Forest, hiking, hunting, fishing and horseback riding are just a few of the most popular activities. The Paiute Trail, part of Fishlake, can be traversed by ATV vehicles.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
