Looking to live in a town that has its own Olympic venue? Welcome to Kearns, Utah, where the Utah Olympic Oval hosted a number of speed skating competitions. The building is still in use today, holding a variety of competitive events and also providing skating opportunities for the public.
Kearns started life as an Army Air Base in the 1940s and grew quickly over the next several decades. The base closed down long ago, but the town has thrived and today is home to many established businesses. Kearns is actually a township rather than a town, although the difference isn't really a big deal --something to do with a township having fewer elected officials than a town.

The altitude is pretty high, at 4,528 feet. The population density is rather high as well, so you will have plenty of friendly neighbors when you get here. View Kearns City Guide
