BusinessWeek Says Utah Valley Is ‘Best Place’
With nearly 24 percent of our local businesses planning to hire in the next quarter, BusinessWeek has named Utah Valley as the second ‘Best Place To Start Over‘ in the country.
Citing Information Technology as one of the booming industries in Utah Valley, BusinessWeek also makes mention of our relatively low average home price and slightly lower (comparative) unemployment rate. In particular, BusinessWeek states that even though our local Utah Valley economy has weakened in recent months, that a strong technology market, and local opportunities with BYU and UVU continue to buoy us up in hard times.
No doubt our local flair for innovation and entrepreneurship have helped to make Utah Valley one of the best placed in The United States to start over.
