Living in Arizona is quite a unique experience because of the vastness that the state offers. From the Sonoran Desert in the south to the high country in the north all the way up towards the Four Corners east and the Grand Canyon in the west. Known as the Grand Canyon state, Arizona is diverse in many ways. The state tree is the Palo Verde, the state cactus is the Saguaro, the state bird is the Cactus wren.

I agree with your top three recommendations to live in AZ. I live in Gilbert for 24 years now and it’s just getting better every year. Safety and the school system is pretty good. Definitely, a place to raise a family.

Born and raised in Paris, lived there for 25 years and moved to Scottsdale almost 4 years ago now : never going back, such a great place to live ! :-)

Thank you for all of your great information I moved here less than a year ago and I’m still mesmerized by how beautiful this this place is ❤

Grew up in Arizona, but my roots are still in Missouri. Went back to give it another try, but, alas, I have returned to my "roots". Chandler was last town I lived in before my parents decided to drag me to Missouri, no regrets.

As a AZ native, they’ve been talking about Phoenix-Tucson connection for decades!!!

Another small town that never gets a mention is Apache Junction. The Superstition Mountains are gorgeous! No traffic. Even the local doctor rides his horse to work and ties him up at the hitching post. We don’t have homeless people in tents and rent is cheaper! We always get a bum rap but I love it out here!

Arrowhead Lakes the only neighborhood I know of that has Lakes AND Mountains within walking distance of your house. Beautiful homes there...

[Truetill]

Great list and as a Gilbert resident I completely agree.

We are looking at Wickenburg Ranch in Wickenburg. It is a bit off of the valley floor, but the area is beautiful and a slower pace. I love it there.

I sold in Queen Creek too early but have nice place in Mesa, I love to see that night life video on Gilbert, cheers

My wife and I really enjoy Arizona bur the more I listen it sounds like a rich person's state

[jillponce]

This was a nice video of the area. One thing to consider is the drive to get “downtown” or to areas that you want to go for entertainment. We live in Scottsdale and absolutely love it- everything we need is within walking distance. We also just bought a hilltop piece of land in Rio Verde that is fed with local water (no hauling water for our property) and its right next to the Preserve. My son lives in Mesa after living in North Phoenix for many years. He really likes all the “new” building that is going on down there near his home (Gilbert, QueenCreek and Chandler.). Thanks for putting this channel together. I subscribed!

I’d add Arcadia and Biltmore areas of Phoenix to the list.

Nice presentation of the Phoenix and surrounding areas.

Big miss without Fountain Hills. Moved here and its easily the paradise of the valley.

[juanvalles]

You touched on the west valley for a second but I believe it needs a second look. The growth in surprise is insane, another commenter mentioned Litchfield park, Goodyear/Estrella mountain ranch well established neighborhood. Verrado in buckeye, I feel like this list leans hard to the east without a good look at the west.

I really enjoyed this as we are moving to AZ from Philadelphia area

[rampar]

i lived in Mesa for 6 months and didn't realize the price of real estate was so high. The July August temp would drive me out.

Surprise is a hidden Gem! I just bought an acre parcel right off the 303. It’s growing rapidly.
