  The Mormons have been engaging in white flight from Salt Lake City proper and heading further and further south. The current tech bubble area near Lehi is a perfect example, just ten years prior they were all moving 10 miles north to Draper and Riverton towns but now those are too diverse too.

  I live in Utah and I'd gladly welcome more technical types regardless. I think it is a net win.

  Non-Mormon in Utah. I grew up here. In high school, I felt excluded. I felt like all the social activities centered on the Mormon Church, and I was left out. I resented it, deeply and for a long time. Eventually I realized: Maybe it was just because I was a nerd. Maybe it wasn't the fault of the Mormon Church at all. As a non-Mormon, I haven't been unwelcome anywhere, ever. There still is a bit of a feeling of being an outsider, but it's not like "no promotions for you" or anything. I've been treated fairly everywhere I've been. (Disclaimer: I'm male, white, straight, and cis. I don't know enough to speak for the experience of those who are not.)
