What do you mean there are no jobs out there have you ever heard of Kennecott? There is also a very good sized Industrial Park on the West Jordan / South Jordan border. 5 minutes from Herriman on Bacchus Hwy. E-bay will soon be right there as well. The Farmgate Apartments are right across the street from Daybreak, and just to piss off the NIMBYS there is also another Apartment complex being built right next to Farmgate called Timbergate. And I guarantee with the state of the economy right now those will fill up faster than they can build them. San Tropez @ the District is experiencing this now. Herriman is trying very hard to make their city sustainable. Look at their website they are trying to build a city center that would help transform this bedroom community. There are alot of jobs in the area for people that live in apartments the problem is there is not enough high paying jobs(careers) for people to afford homes without commuting.
