Anybody in or know someone in Ogden? Looking for a room/studio/basement to rent until finding a home to buy.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I've seriously been considering moving to Utah with the family. The Ogden/Syracuse areas have really caught my attention. Haven't really looked for jobs yet, but if we decide we want to take the leap of faith, we may look into moving next summer.
Can anyone provide input on what they like/don't like? I've lived in Texas my whole life and have no ties whatsoever to Utah. We aren't Morman, just looking for a great place to live and enjoy the outdoors and raise the kids.

Thanks for mentioning that. I'll make sure to check it out next time I'm over there from Denver for work.

Red Iguana is weak and I'm surprised someone from Texas would say it is anywhere close to Tex-Amex good. They put a **** ton of cinnamon in everything - weird taste.
Best I've found in SLC is Tres Hombres

I am also looking at SLC for all the same reasons listed above. I've heard the mormon thing is not that bad, but i have a coworker who is in slc and is leaving because of the judgmental atmosphere. He says that a non mormon (LDS to him) living in SLC is like a muslim living in the vatican. Says you can find a way to make it work but you'll be razzed and your kids will likely be ostracized. My biggest concern is how the kids are treated. We are also looking at den but like slc more for several reasons.

But it's a dry heat comparable to west Texas.

Looking seriously at some places a little south of Provo and also around Cedar City. I've never heard of a lot of the builders around those areas though. Have spent a pretty good amount of time in Southern Utah, but really want to get out of the heat. Finding something that's new and on grid away from the city has been challenging!
I haven't been in bars much the last year and a half, but the one I was in that I thought was good to watch a game at is the bar area of Trolley Wing Co (Sugarhouse, but there's one close to downtown).SmithAg18 said:
A little bit off topic here, but thought this would be the place to ask. Anyone know a good place in the SLC area to watch the Ags btho Colorado this weekend (9/11)? Girlfriend and I will be coming through as part of our vacation and wanted to find a bar with the game on. Thanks in advance.

I actually like the desert(ish) towns of Nephi and Santaquin south of Provo as well as the Ogden area. I live in SLC and it is fine, but way too many apartments going up right now and I am feeling a bit crowded. There is also central and southern Utah where you get plenty of heat but little humidity: overlooked small towns are Price, Ephraim, Panguitch, Parowan and Richfield along with Green River. Utah does have a state income tax, so be aware of that along with a growing Hispanic population which means wider availability of Mexican restaurants which have regional cuisine: Tex-Mex, Oaxacan, Jalisco, Sinaloa. But the majority of people here are British/Nordic/German descent and tend to be very well educated and conservative. I have never regretted moving here although I do miss Texas. I just don't miss the heat and humidity.
