At first I thought it was economic, that on one paycheck the sole owner making the payment had to make sure to get the best value possible.
Then I thought that maybe the attraction was the fact that Tooele County was the only community close to Salt Lake that was eligible for the FDA 100% mortgage.
Finally I examined the possibility that singles were more outdoorsy and were moving to Tooele for the rural lifestyle and open … (0 comments)
