Why you'd want to live in Salt Lake City

Salt Lake is the largest metropolitan area in Utah. Salt Lake is used to refer to both the city and the county. The city is bordered by the Great Salt Lake and the snow-capped Wasatch Range. Meanwhile, the county stretches from the suburbs of North Salt Lake to Bluffdale and is ringed by the Oquirrh (pronounced “oaker”) and Wasatch ranges. Salt Lake is at a higher elevation than most cities. We strongly encourage visitors to spend a night in Salt Lake before heading to the ski resorts to help avoid elevation sickness. Because there is less oxygen in the air, you’ll also notice that alcohol may affect you more strongly than it does at home. via visitsaltlake.com
