While Salt Lake technically meets the requirements, they do so just barely. The metro area barely cracks a million people, and the airport maybe has 1 or 2 international flights a day. Plus Amazon and the Utah state government still have a lot animosity towards each other from the whole online tax thing.

Plus it's really tough to attract out of state talent in Utah.

I think Salt Lake would be a very hard sell compared to what Amazon could easily get with Denver.
