Glad to have you here. It is a very tough spot to be in. I was in a neighborhood with about a 40/60 - 50/50 split politically close to the brickyard area. Almost all my neighbors were great & some were of Polish descent (older generation) that would rail against the NAZI tactics they saw coming out 8 years ago.
I should preface most that moved from CA to UT (round 1) brougt many good family focused conservatives from the fires almost 20 year ago) into my neighborhood (almost tripled the population in about 5 years of growth in that area).
I don't buy that all move in are libs. Though I noticed every time a neighbor moved out of the SL area & a California family moved into the neighborhood, they almost always had a leftists/socialist desiring mindset. I just didn't understand it & have wondered if it is simply because Salt Lake has the reputation of being "more accepting" or "more like Portland" than elsewhere in UT, so the leftist (not classical liberals) minded former CA residents head closer that direction.
Just an idea, but it was weird as a most of the new move ins from CA to this part of Utah County lean between conservative to very conservative & most are anti Romney LoL.
