In the past five years, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints bought twice as much Nebraska land as the second biggest buyer. If they keep it up, they’ll soon own more than anyone.
Yup. I live in Kansas City, on the Missouri side, and there’s tons of land that’s owned by the LDS. There was an area near where where I grew up, that I drove past many times a week as an adult, that I only later learned was LDS land. Only learned about it after there was talk of developing the area into like a youth sports complex. And that the LDS church owned the land.
the LDS Church owns a lot of real estate around the country so this is pretty typical for them.
