We have a huge advantage over SF in that we actually let developers build more housing (and also have plenty of space to build more) Im always so confused when I go to the Bay area and realize the density is much less than Utah.
- nobleach 6y agoWhile I see people pushing more and more down into American Fork, Lindon, etc I find it strange that they rarely push North. Pluralsight was in Station Park in Farmington, but I believe they've also moved to Provo.
- phaedryx 6y agoIt's because setting up between Salt Lake and Utah counties lets you draw talent from both locations.
- ryankshaw 6y agoI think the question is more, "why not set up in the northern part of Salt Lake valley to be able to pull in people from Davis/Weber county?" There is certainly plenty of people that live up there, seemingly just as many as live in Utah County. Is it that there is a dearth of them that have the skills tech companies are looking for? Are there governmental/policy reasons keeping companies away? Is it because BYU is in Utah County and WSU/USU are that much worse at providing potential hires than BYU/UVU are? I don't know the reason but it does seem weird to me that there is so much push into Utah County and seemingly nothing to the north.
