What do millennials want when shopping for a place to call home?

Because of the sheer numbers of these young adults, there's a lot riding on the answer to this question and the Salt Lake Chamber, city leaders and residential developers say they're trying to make downtown the most attractive option for this crucial demographic.

On Tuesday at 12:15 p.m., economist Pam Perlich, real estate agent Angela Carlson, the Downtown Alliance's Nick Como and Tribune reporter Tony Semerad join Jennifer Napier-Pearce to talk about the wants and needs of 20- and 30-somethings and their importance to the economy.
