Why I say, Ms. Julie, you certainly have bragging rights over Fort Worth on this one! That's great news for your buyers and anyone thinking of moving to Utah. That's a gorgeous photo! Have wonderful evening my sweet friend! Thanks for your email today...it made my day! ;-)

Hi Julie,

Beautiful photo! I didn't realize Salt Lake City was so large.

It sounds like the perfect area for jobhunters to move to and with the lovely scenery that surrounds the city and you to help them find the perfect home, how could they ever go wrong?

((-:

Stunning photo, Julie, and if I didn't love my own hometown so much, I might even be tempted... :)

Julie - Thanks for emailing me about this. I am planning to write my own post on this story soon. Have a great week!

That is fantastic for people in area Julie. It looks like Utah is the place to go and great job presenting the information.

Julie, I'm not surprised at Salt Lake City being #1 but I am surprised at Wichita Ks being #2. We are originally from Wichita and go back quite often and hearing my in-laws you would think it was not quite that good. I clicked on the story but it was George Stephanapolis; should I have kept listening?

Hi Julie,
That is great information and certainly should help you promote your area and business. Take it and run with it.

Julie, This is wonderful information for you and for all your clients who would like to relocate there.

Julie....yet another connection we have! Aren't you glad I told you about this!

Check out my posting on it as well...altho I could not figure out how to make the picture be the link.

There needs to be a blogging school somewhere....I'll sign up for extra credit!

Julie, it's great Salt Lake made it on top for the employment growth. We have two in our Texas area so that's encouraging for our state. Atlanta supposedly is strong on the jobs but they do have a lot of houses currently on the market. Don't know enough about what is making Wichita so strong other than maybe the Boeing facilty.

Julie It looks like your area continues to do extremely well. I hope things pick up here soon.

Julie you are fortunate to be in an area with so much job growth! I remember going back about 7 or 8 years ago Massachusetts was experiencing the same thing...it was great for business. We are one of the few States now that there are more people leaving than coming...not so good (:

Congratulations, Julie! That should help insulate you from the housing and economy bad news around the country! Beautiful photo, by the way, and I like the way you linked to your relo package. I'll have to add that into my blog signature!

Wow what an awesdome statistic for marketing your area to Localism - great job Julie - get ready for the influx :)

Sincerely,

Grace

Julie - Looks like you have many positives to draw buyers to the Salt Lake City area...jobs, affordability, and beautiful city lights!

How exciting Julie...you better be careful we will all be moving there!

Julie: NICE post!!!! I decided to head back to Lake Arrowhead instead of Utah...BUT, I feel as you do about this great state. My grandson will be born in May....I am certain I will be spending plenty of time there.

Jo: I've lived here my entire life so it's hard to really compare Utah to much. I love it here and we do have a beautiful state.

Thank you for making such a kind comment and I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Lisa: Possible move to Utah? Are you sure you don't want to come out here. I just wish I could get all my AR friends to purchase some vacation property out here. Thank you for your wonderful comment and enjoy your weekend.

Jason: You are welcome! I look forward to seeing your blog on this. Have a wonderful weekend my friend.

Craig: Thank you for your kind comment. We do have a wonderful state and the job stability is fantastic. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Kat: Oh my gosh! It's so great to see you visit. I have missed you here and have really needed to catch up with you. I can't believe the baby is almost due.

Julie- And what kind of a job should a person be able to get if they relocate to Utah?

Kathy: That is a beautiful photo that I certainly can't take credit for. I found it on photobucket and provided the link. Thank you for your kind comment and have a wonderful weekend.

Katerina: Hello my friend! What kind of jobs you ask? Thank goodness I added all that valuable information within the post Utah’s growing workforce and strong economy which does certainly make a difference in the prospective buyer for Utah. Thank you for your kind comment.

I've heard Salt Lake is doing very well. That's wonderful.

Julie, maybe someone already asked, but did you take that photo? It is spectacular of downtown Salt Lake and looking towards Sandy and south?

Teri:Thank you for your great comment. I didn't take that photo. I added the link to it which is from photobucket. I only wish my photos came out that spectacular. I should add a comment by the picture as to where it came from. You really do know Salt Lake City. That is fantastic and yes, we are getting great reviews. Business has really picked up.

Julie

I don't think I would go back into the chemistry field, but perhaps they could use an extra Realtor out there.

Sincerely

Tom Braatz

Julie, that is great news for your area. How does the cost of living compare? Just curious. I need to review such stats for my own area. I agree that Utah is beautiful and you present your love and commitment so well in all of your blogs.

Suzi~Our cost of living is still reasonable. Well, definitely compared to other states. Check out Forbes.com. They have fantastic reviews that are so helpful in relaying this kind of valuable info to our consumers. Thank you so very much for your kind comment and how encouraging that is to keep writing. Have a wonderful day tomorrow and always.
