- jlarocco 3y agoThe workers are not always there. A lot of resort companies, like Vail Resorts, will bring in H2B and J1 visa workers [0] and put them up in employee housing for the winter. They could hire plenty of US workers if they'd pay enough, but H2B workers are cheaper and complain less because getting fired means getting deported. Even the local workers are unlikely to live in town. Sometimes you'll see 4 or 5 lifties or ski instructors sharing a small apartment, but a lot of times they commute from cheaper towns nearby.
