Where to live in PHX

[easydoesit]

Looking to move my family to PHX from ATL. I'm needing advice on where some of you live other than the Scottsdale area. We are just starting to look now. We just started home schooling the kids so the schools aren't top priority at the moment.

Thanks for any info...

Tons of pilots in Ahwatukee. Stay away from downtown.

Lot's of growth in SE part of the valley. Gilbert and Chandler are both great communities.

Ahwatukee as mentioned, Fountain Hills, chandler.. Just my opinion.

Stay away from south and southwest Phoenix.. Not sure about the northwest areas though.

Waddell and Surprise are nice out in the west valley. Allwhitetukee is alright too. Tons of development down in the Queen Creek area as well, new homes are popping up daily

Queen creek would by my first and only choice...great schools, newer reasonable housing, etc...quiet for the most part, 25 mins to PHX

Oh, I forgot.. Take a look at Anthem. It's a really nice looking newer town to the north of deer valley. It feels like its own little area, and puts you about 45 min closer to adventuring up to Sedona or Prescott.. Anyways, good luck.

Ahwatukee- the world's largest cul-de-sac!

If you want to live in Arizona, try Tucson instead....

Bear Down Wildcats and Beat the Huskies!

Guadalupe is where it's at. Centrally located and a short drive to the airport. Reasonable housing prices too.

You'll need to be able to speak Spanish living in the Guad. Probably wise to carry too.

Completely agree with these choices. Ahwatukee is relatively close to the airport too. SNOTSdale is nice but very expensive. Bring a lot of high SPF tanning lotion...

Luke Air Force Base. With my Bros from the squadron. "Logbook" ?

Southeast valley is where it's at.

North Phoenix, Fountain Hills, Scottsdale are nice too.

Stay out of Guad, malfunction junction, and southwest valley

Try to stay out of the valley itself. http://www.mnn.com/health/healthy-spaces/photos/7-us-cities-with-the-worst-air-pollution/phoenix Looking down at it from high grounds it almost looks like Hong Kong with all the crap in the air.

Rent for a year and find your nitch. Lots of good spots throughout the valley.

Every time I've moved sight unseen I've regretted not taking a year lease to find the sweet spots.

Best of luck to you and your family regardless.

Flagstaff. Your family will thank you.
