Moab Utah is beautiful. going on this trip actually convinced me to want to live in Utah at some point in my life. it was a school camping trip, so it was very limited, but I really got a feel for how it is to live in Utah in general.

How safe is Moab for women?

Moab is a small town with a large transient population. As with most tourist areas, locals work in the hospitality/tourism industry and the town does not offer adequate affordable housing; therefore, many live in tents or campers. Overall, I feel very safe.
