It may not be a major city here in the U.S. but boy-oh-boy does Provo pack a punch! There's good reason it's been one of the fastest growing areas in the country. It's exploded onto the tech scene during the last decade and earned its nickname of Silicon Slopes. Bringing with it more jobs, opportunities, and economic growth in the valley. The Provo/Orem area is home to so many great things that it's actually difficult to mention all of them. Things from an incredible food and restaurant scene all the way to one of the strongest housing markets in the country.
Provo is also home to Brigham Young University (BYU) and Orem is home to Utah Valley University. Therefore, it earns it's title of being an authentic college town. Over 70,000 college students descend on this place every fall and bring with them competitive college athletics that they entire town and state gets behind. We haven't even discussed the outdoor opportunities here. I guess you'll have to keep reading.
Whether you choose to hike the "Y" or all the way up to the peak of Mt. Timpanogos, you'll find the view of Utah Valley to be tremendous. There is no shortage of activities in this area. All of the shopping and eating you could dream of coupled with a laundry list of outdoor adventures just waiting for you to embark upon.
Not only is Salt Lake City just 40 minutes to the north, but with it are all the best ski resorts in the world! There's a reason Utah is home to the "best snow on earth." Just up Provo Canyon is the world famous Sundance Resort founded by famous actor and philanthropist, Robert Redford. You'll find an abundance of local restaurants, locally made goods, and experiences waiting to be had in Provo!
So, you've heard us talk about what there is to do outside in this place, but hear us out, we'd like to tell you a little more. Yes, the skiing is great. Yes, the hiking is bar-none. And yes, the mountain biking is top-shelf. But, have you heard about our fishing? No, we're not talking about some stocked lake or pond, we're talking about the blue-ribbon trout tributary of the Provo River. Cast your line in these waters and it's rare that you don't haul in a nice one.
The fishing is great, the shopping is great, the restaurants are great. What more could we tell you about to convince you to visit Provo? Well, it's a frequent host to conferences, conventions, and even Boston-qualifying marathons like the Utah Valley Marathon. Also, how about the fact that it's one of the more most family friendly cities in the country. Low crime, high levels of happiness, and lots and lots of dogs. People get outside and do things here. Whether it's a simple picnic at Vivian Park or a boat ride our on Utah Lake, you'll never run out of experiences to be had in the Provo and Orem area.
