Where do Grand Canyon employees live?

We live along the South Rim of the Canyon at a 7000-foot elevation in the ponderosa pine forest. Most new employees will reside in dormitory-style housing sharing a room with another employee. Employees who stay long-term and/or have a higher job grade can qualify to live in an apartment setting.
