Enoch, Utah is an agricultural city in Iron County, approximately seven miles northeast of Cedar City. Enoch was settled as part of a Mormon iron mission along with Parowan and Cedar City.

The name changed to Enoch in 1890 to avoid confusion with another Utah community that shared the name, Johnson Springs. In 1956 it was officially settled as Enoch after the Mormon United Order. It was incorporated in 1966, at which time it absorbed the communities of Grimshawville, Williamsville, and Stevensville. Today some 6,600 people call this rural community home.
