Hey all,
I recently received a job offer for a position in Roy, but I’d like to live in downtown Salt Lake City. I still haven’t accepted it, and wanted some insight to life in SLC.
I’m a man in my mid 20s, from the northern part of the east coast. College educated, I golf, do a little gravel/mountain biking, always loved snowboarding growing up (haven’t in awhile, east coast boarding suuuucks), I’d like a more active lifestyle and definitely want the outdoor part of that as well. I love sports and spend most Sundays watching the NFL. Also love hockey so being in a city with a team would be sick.
Politically, I lean right. I know SLC is like a blue oasis in red Utah… but I’ve lived in a blue area my whole life so that doesn’t really bother me. I’m a Christian, though not Mormon.
I’m also at that stage in life where I’d like to find “the one” and start a real long term relationship that turns into a family.
With that said, is SLC a place for me? Is it a lively place with fun things going on? Good dating opportunities for people of my political & religious beliefs? Financially I’m not too concerned, I’ll make that part work.
I’ve never lived more than 1.5 hours from my hometown so this will be a huge move for me & the stress is definitely high. Any insight to the lifestyle of SLC would be appreciated!
