When people talk of being "scared" of certain states, rarely is climate the issue. If you're scared to go to S.D. in the dead of winter, I wouldn't call it stereotyping. I would call it being a wuss.
I'm sure the people there are great, it's just that the flatness would drive me crazy.
You want flat, try Florida. I grew up there, and I love hiking. The first time I was able to hike with elevation changes, it just about killed me . . . or killed my legs, at any rate.
I'd rather not live in Utah. Not because I'm "scared of it," but because the majority of Utah's residents hold vastly different religious/political views than I do. I'd never fit in.
I was thinking of the same. I am not drawn to it for that reason, even to visit really. Not that it doesn't look nice, but there are too many places on my list already.

This is exactly what draws me to it. I have no intention of living there, so why would I worry about fitting in? To me, I get more of a charge out of seeing what all of the hype is about.

I got tired being asked by Europeans if I'd been to Utah, as they all found it so spectacular. So, I bit the bullet and spent two weeks there one year. Utah has some of the most beautiful national parks in the country, among them Zion, Bryce, Arches and Canyonlands. I am fairly areligious, yet found the people there very welcoming. I'm not discussing living there, as so many factors go into that equation. For anyone afraid to visit Utah, I'd advise you to put your prejudices aside.
