The city’s natural beauty – from the well-preserved urban wilderness of Dimple Dell Park to many parks and open spaces. It could be the many venues for entertainment – you could watch a Real Salt Lake game in the afternoon, then head over to Hale Centre Theatre or the Sandy Amphitheater in the evening for a musical or concert. It could be the many events and traditions that bring people together as a community, there is a  4th of July celebration, Hot Air Balloon Festival, the city has a  9/11 Healing Field. It could be the city’s close proximity to world-class outdoor recreation opportunities in the Wasatch mountains. Or, it could be the unique mixture of all these things: the benefits of living in a modern, vibrant city combined with easy access to the great outdoors.
