As a resident of South Salt Lake (but past and hopeful near future resident of SLC) I would be supportive of merging with SLC. But I agree with the logic that SSL would be very resistant to it, especially with the city government pushing so hard for a "downtown South Salt Lake". Millcreek DEFINITELY prides itself on being its own distinct city.

There was also a recent proposal to merge SSL and Millcreek. I don't think it was something that ever got beyond the theoretical phase, because people were resistant even to that idea.

And thank god voters in the county voted against a full merger. I wouldn't want the backwards politics of suburban Salt Lake to interfere with SLC policy. I could take South Salt Lake, maybe Millcreek...but anything else would just drag down the development of Salt Lake City into the only truly tolerable city in the state.
