You could use this to your advantage if you can find out how to contact
people moving into the area who are not LDS. University and government
employees who are coming from elsewhere -- not always a move of their choice
-- might welcome your community more than in other cities.

If you want the community to survive, the sale of units is of major
importance to all the residents. To say it is the owners problem is like
saying that the schools are the parents problems (not to start that
discussion again).
