Unless you have been to downtown Salt Lake City, Utah within the past few years, you probably have a memory of a city that was more small town than big city. But rapid development in the downtown area has completely changed the way the city works and has made fundamental changes to the way it operates. Salt Lake City has a well-development public transportation system and is one of the most walking friendly cities in the United States (assuming, of course, you can stand the altitude). The almost explosive growth of the city has caused problems with air pollution and traffic, but the city is addressing both problems. The wide streets of the downtown area make traveling by car much easier than many Eastern Coast cities and there are a lot of open spaces and parks.
