Is Salt Lake City the New New York?

(SALT LAKE CITY) -- Many financial jobs that were once in New York are now relocating to Utah; Over 1,400 Goldman Sachs employees are now working in Salt Lake.
 
According to Utah Governor Gary Herbert, "I sometimes quote the first territorial Governor, Brigham Young, who said, 'This is the place.' I am the 17th governor of Utah and I say this is the right place for business."

According to Herbert "If you come and create economic expansion, you create a thousand jobs, you put more revenue into our income tax coffers, we will reward you by giving some of that money back."

Goldman could receive millions of dollars for relocating the jobs to Utah.
