| | Salt Lake City is a great place to live and it has become even better the past four years. | | | Rated as one of the 10 best cities in which to live and work by Employment Review magazine, and as one of the ten most livable big cities in the country by the US Conference of Mayors, Salt Lake City is clearly, as Money magazine put it, the best in the west. | | | Salt Lake City itself passed through a crossroads of another kind recently but the driver, our mayor, lacking both direction and a plan, has left us traveling the wrong direction, on the wrong road. |
