Doug Mayer from Run the Alps has a quick and helpful list for Americans traveling to Chamonix for UTMB on UltraSignup News. To put in perspective what UTMB means for Chamonix:

The village, really just a few square kilometers in size, houses 4,000 or so residents. A similar number of Chamoniards live in the outlying villages of Les Houches, Servoz, Argentière, Le Tour, and Vallorcine.
