What is the BEST TOWN IN AMERICA? Park City, Utah!

Ever thought about skiing from your doorstep to the gondola?  How about riding your mountain bike off your front porch to some of the most breathtaking mountain scenery?  Are you a film buff and love to rub shoulders with some of the world’s greatest actors?  Love the small town feel but hate being away from all the amenities of the big city?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then the Park City/Deer Valley/Kimball Junction area is right for you!

The article by Kyle Dickman in the September issue of “Outside” naming Park City, Utah, as the Best Town in America writes, "Park City feels like a Colorado ski town dropped into Utah’s 12,000-foot Wasatch Range, with one significant difference. Unlike Telluride or Aspen, it has a major city, Salt Lake, and an international airport 30 minutes away."

This Youtube video helped Park City become the Best Town in America.

“Outside” based their list on which communities in America were the healthiest with ample trailheads, nearby adventure, farmer’s markets and gear-shop stores. Out of the top 18 towns, their readers raved the most about Park City, UT.
