A survey conducted for the city's public lands agency says that Salt Lake City has more households with dogs than it has households with children. It's a factoid often repeated by Mayor Erin Mendenhall and members of the city council as they talk about parks and planning.

It’s not that there are no children to provide playgrounds and parks for, but there are definitely more dogs and dog owners." Utah has lately seen a birth rate decline. Research by the University of Utah's Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute found the state has dropped from first in the nation in births to fourth place. The fertility rate declined 22%.
Asked where the top area for dogs would be, Millar replied:"Sugar House." The city compares itself to similar cities.
