Funny Take:
It appears Utah is lacing up for a walkathon! Redfin, the real estate detectives, have taken a break from house hunting to go after “walk hunting.” After snooping around, they’ve discovered a gem: Salt Lake City is the queen bee in the hive of walkability. On-foot explorers, rejoice! You can coyly wave goodbye to your gas-guzzling cars and embrace a greener (and leg-toned) future.
The sneaker-savvy will feel right at home in Downtown, Central City, and Rio Grande, perfecting their catwalk strut in the process. But it’s not just Salt Lake City hogging all the ‘walk’ fame. Provo, Ogden, and Logan also earned some hearty applause.
So, if your perfect day involves a baguette under your arm, strolling to the nearest park, or a leisure walk to the corner cafe, then this may just be the guide you’ve been sweating (literally) to find. On the flipside, if you resonate more with the couch-potato tribe, you might have to weigh the walkability factor carefully. After all, the short distance to the supermarket might make you the “errand person” by default.
So, load up your favorite podcasts, tie those shoelaces tight, and explore these Utah cities where the world truly is at your feet. Happy strutting, my friends!
