Intermountain is surrounded by scenic mountains known as the Wasatch Front. It provides all the landmark establishments, high-rated dining and nightlife, mass transit, creative culture, urban edginess and local events you expect to find in a thriving metro area, with the convenience and affordability of a place that hasn’t been discovered by the masses. As one of the earliest settlements in the western United States it has a uniquely historic feel compared to other western capital cities. The close proximity to spectacular, year-round, outdoor recreation is a key appeal to any Salt Lake resident and was also highlighted during the 2002 Winter Olympics. It is difficult to find any place on earth that marries the comforts, culture and attractions of a metropolitan city with the trails, tranquility and recreation of mountain living.
