      Cedar city is a small city. There's only one difficulty for international students. Since Cedar has no public transportations, it's hard to go around if you don't have a car.

      Cedar City is a small city so it doesn't have much public transportation and not much to do except going in the wild. Besides that I feel super safe and most things are still within walking distance so for someone who doesn't like big cities it's perfect. The only thing is that religion is very present here and I didn't know before coming and I feel like that would be a good thing to know.

      Souther Utah University is located in Cedar City. Cedar City is a small town of approximately 32,000 people. One thing about Cedar that is pretty evident from the get go is how friendly the residents are. They allow you to feel welcomed and appreciated especially if you are a student athlete. It is very safe as crime levels are very low. Cedar hosts a wide variety of restaurants to choose from and many natural attractions such as parks and hiking trails. There is not much to do at nights in Cedar but the bowling ally closes at 11 and that pretty cool!
