History

A new round of settlers established a permanent settlement in 1878. Ford had been using the area in Monument Valley around Mexican Hat, Utah, south of Moab, since he filmed Stagecoach (film) there 10 years earlier in 1939. Many people left the city in high numbers by the early 1980s many homes stood empty and nearly all of the uranium mines had closed. In recent years Moab has seen a surge of second home owners. Some historians believe the city in Utah came to use that name because of William Pierce, the first postmaster, believing that the biblical Moab and this part of Utah were both "the far country".
