Page, AZ makes the Top Ten List of Outdoor Life's Best Places To Live

Page, Arizona placed in the top ten of Outdoor Life's April 2008 cover story, "Best Places to Live - Top 200 Towns For Hunters & Anglers" Page placed as one of the lists "Supertowns"

Outdoor Life has 5 million readers and was started in the late 1800's.

So, how did Page make this list? Simple - it's an awesome place!!

According to the article ~

“Once a gritty company town whose fortunes were tied to dam construction and power production, Page has diversified into a tourist Mecca. Good food, interesting stores and stunning viewsheds,”

"Homes are expensive here, but this is one of the most diverse fishing towns in America, and if you can ever draw a tag, it’s a great base to experience epic big-game hunting.”

Page was picked for several reasons - The fishing experience and opportunities below Glen Canyon Dam on the Colorado River was the top reason. Also listed are the great hunting opportunities on the Kaibab Plateau and the deserts of southern Utah, all which are a short driving distance from Page.

Outdoor Life Executive Editor John Snow indicated that he feels Page is on the way up. The quality of life in Page is one thing that helped it make the Top Ten.

"Other factors considered in making the rankings included local economic health, unemployment rate, crime rate and availability of various amenities, as well as accessibility to public lands – the latter a variable in which Page scored extremely high, Snow said.
