This is spot on. First, they will try to convert you. When you decline, they will shun you.

ok; so I understand now. This is an issue,

What about locating certain neighborhoods? I mean, like ones with fewer or none of them living there?

Could a realtor help with that?

Maybe banks could help, by perhaps not giving any loans or mortgages to those people in certain neighborhoods?

If you are in Sugar House, Liberty Wells, Rose Park, Capitol Hill, Yalecrest, The Avenues, really most of Salt Lake City proper, it's going to be less LDS and more liberal. Same with Park City. Now your budget is going to impact where is a better fit as well.

Great idea! The banks could use maps to outline neighborhoods where they won’t give mortgages to these Mormons.

The banks could draw lines around neighborhoods they want to keep “Mormon-free,” maybe using, IDK, like a red pen? And deny mortgages to “those people.”
