I am moving to SLC in 5 weeks..I have never been to Utah..any advice or comments about SLC?

I don't really know SLC, I've been thru there, seems like a nice place, but I think you will love Utah! I live in Moab, Utah, and I think it's beautiful here!

THANKS

Your very welcome! Be careful if you drive it though!

why?

traffic! I'm just saying be careful, you never know when someone will cause an accident!

driving in utah is no different than any where else

YEA SLC CAN BE COOL THERE`S LOTS OF CLUBS AND GOOD MUSIC SCENE

OH AND WACTH OUT THEY ARE THE WORST DIVERS EVER

YEA SLC CAN BE COOL GOOD MUSIC AND CULBS BUT WACTH OUT FOR THE DRIVERS THEY ARE THE WORST EVER

This place definitely has its ups and downs. Be prepared to be converted, or to at least have someone try. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but it does get annoying from time to time. I'm not exaggerating, generally about every four to five blocks you can find an LDS church. They're a dime a dozen.

If you're a fan of going out and having a blast on the weekends, make sure you make friends who are into after parties, because the state in a way shuts down at 2am. There are a few good dance clubs downtown, some are within walking distance of each other, but they're nothing you haven't seen in other places.

If you're an outdoors person, THIS IS THE PLACE - pun intended. You can be right in the middle of downtown Salt Lake City, then fifteen minutes later be in the mountains. If you're up for a four hour drive you can go see the red rock in Cedar City, and if you're willing to drive an hour more after that there are tons of natural parks to see. While you're here you should see the Salt Flats at least once. It's a strange environment.

The symphony is relatively cheap. Around $15 - $25 a ticket. There's surprisingly quite a bit of good theater here, but if you're catching something at the Capitol Theater, be prepared to shell out a bit of money. If the nose-bleed section can be around $150 a ticket.

I love Wise Guys in West Valley, which isn't too far from Salt Lake. It's a comedy club that has a good headliner nearly every weekend. $5 a ticket and you have to purchase a menu item which ranges from about $2+, so generally if you go cheap you'll be spending about $7.

If you're into soccer, the Real (rey-al) pro team just had a stadium built in - what is that, Sandy? I'm not a big soccer fan so I don't know what tickets cost, but it is a nice stadium. If you're into football there's a huge deal about college football. There's a massive rivalry between the Utes and Cougars. It's not hard to know when a game is on, people in Salt Lake broadcast it by becoming a sea of red (the Utes main color).

You have your general restaurants that you can find anywhere, but some of my favorites tend to get pricey. The Paris Bistro can get expensive fast and so can Market Street Grill. The service however is excellent and the food even better. They can offer really good wines.

Speaking of dining, if you get a chance, and have some cash, head up to Park City. One of the coolest events they have is the Sundance Film Festival - it's HUGE. Superstars like Brad Pitt and especially Robert Redford are common faces. That should be coming up in a few months too.

If you're into business too, this is a good place to get off the ground. Utah is crazy about helping out businesses with incentives and tax breaks. Many large corporations house their head quarters here because of it. There's also a lot of good business schools.

I think that about sums it up for now, if you want to know anything more specific or have questions, give me a shout-out or send me a message.

This is a great place. If you go out Piper Down is a great place to find friends and have a great time

Utah sucks compared to Las Vegas though. :P

Then GO BACK

I think the best part about utah is the weather it never gets too bad and its never too windy unlike freakin wyoming lol thats where i just moved back from... but yeah Utahs great and full of amazing people that is if you get good friends. its got its ups and downs but everywhere does and yeah driving kinda sux but it aint bad so dont worry
