Noteverified 261 records. No field explicitly labeled City/Town — UT's split is population-threshold-based (city >=1,000), so it's derivable from POPLASTCENSUS if not directly tagged (SHORTDESC may also carry it, unsampled).

Educational Region
Statusconfirmed to exist but no GIS/API/directory found
Note4 Regional Education Service Agencies (CUES, NUES, SEDC, SESC — renamed from "Regional Service Centers" by 2020 SB0079, governed under Utah Admin Rule R277-706), rural-districts-only coverage (Wasatch Front urban districts aren't members).

Recommended SourceUS Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP) — https://api.census.gov/data/{year}/pep/population — joins on the county FIPS from the counties source above; that source's own POP_CURRESTIMATE works as a quicker fallback.
