Aurora is a city in north-central Sevier County, Utah, United States.

[6] Aurora is predominantly supported by agriculture, coal mining, and the service sector.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 1 square mile (2.6 km2), all land.

The city was moved west two to three miles along the Rocky Ford Canal to avoid the spring flooding accompanying life along the Sevier.

Over time, however, settlers planted crops, and trees and utilized irrigation to create a very beautiful and livable community.

Nestled in the fertile Sevier Valley, Aurora slowly grew as more settlers moved west.

Most current residents can track their lineage to one of the four founding families of the city.
