Latham Jenkins, local luxury and lifestyle real estate broker, told Nicki Swift why so many A-list celebs are moving to Jackson Hole, Wyo. "I believe, like many of us, that they appreciate being surrounded by our natural beauty and open spaces," Jenkins said.
There is also, of course, the cost of living as it compares to typical celebrity hubs, like Los Angeles. "They are floored to know Wyoming has some of the lowest property taxes. You combine this with the lowest income taxes in the nation and on a price per square foot comparison to L.A., Jackson Hole offers a compelling value proposition."
He also spoke of the area's unique culture and lifestyle. "It's hard to explain to most folks, especially from dense urban areas, how easy life is here. My kids ride their e-bikes everywhere on the 65 miles of paved pathways, we can ski fresh powder in the morning and still put in a day's work," Jenkins described, also mentioning the Jackson Hole's more luxurious amenities, like five-star dining.
"Jackson Hole is very laid back and respectful," he continued. And because the community is so small, everyone is sure to stay on their best behavior. "I call it 'self-policing' as you cannot be a jerk — you'll see them again in the grocery store, lift line, or at a local function. It causes all of us to live at a higher standard."
