I think SLC is more attractive than Milwaukee, Minnesota, Denver (used to be 2nd biggest KKK Capital), Cleveland, Charlotte, Oklahoma City, New Orleans.. the list goes on. I think it's got to be more about the people.

I'm sorry, but does this really belong in the Jazz forum? Should it be moved to General Discussion?

I like boring. In fact I wish it was more boring than it is.

If not for my job I would probably live in wyoming or something way more boring than slc.

The place I actually want to live is on the idaho/wyoming border. Star valley

You're getting old, Fish ... ... it's too hectic for me, too.

I love SLC, those who don’t? **** em. SLC is not a giant city. Yes it has winter, it also has anything you need and is close to Vegas and LA if you want a vacation. SLC is a nice place, if some don’t like it oh well.

Adrian Dantley probably started when he got traded to the Jazz when he said "To be honest, there's not much for a young black dude to do in Salt Lake."

Yeah....and AD also couldn’t believe how much the city had changed with his most recent visit, in AD’s day it was 100% true, now?.....well now....SLC has quite a bit to do. It’s not one of the major major US cities by any means but SLC is not the same as Utah lol. It’s not. I can assure you, guys find plenty to do in SLC now, figuratively and literally.

People like us and people with millions in their bankrolls don't really live in the same city. Things for millionaires to do in Salt Lake and Utah in general has climbed quite a bit since the 80's. I mean, how upscale does Indianapolis or Cleveland get?

Also, fairly certain that in 20 years everyone from any neighboring state with an income of more than $500,000 a year will own a home in St. George. That stuff is insane!

It's partly the impression people have of the Mormon church, but probably mostly a perception of people here being backcountry yokels. I don't know how much of that perception is deserved or not. It's just not a super urban area that people are used to.

Yes this plus the negative antics at Jazz games requiring Gail to address them didn't help at all... Plus players and former ones saying some fans yelled out profanity and racist remarks?

The air quality in winter (inversion) is BY FAR my biggest gripe with SLC.

Same same. I don’t even mind the cold, the inversions which I guess aren’t really that significant amount of time each year is probably my biggest gripe too. Hopefully we make some big strides in cleaning them up the best we can in the coming years and decade.

And thanks to Der Fuhrer Trump's encouragement, this is happening all over the country. It's hard to escape racism in a country that was founded on the backs of racism. We had a Civil War in which 500,000 soldiers died because of it, and we still were unable to end it.

It remains a place with limited clubbing relative other NBA markets and outside of SLC, Utah is one of the whitest places in the United States with the ignorance to match.

Unless a person is coming to Utah to find excitement in the outdoors, the reason they come here is to chill.
