Best city to live in arizona?
 

I've seen nice big houses 5 bedroom 3 bathrooms 3000k+ square feet for like $300k in phoenix.
Anyone recommend good areas?

Houses are dirt cheap in Phoenix. I have a modest 2600sq ft five bedroom house with a pool for $240k.

Phoenix has some real nice areas, but some really bad areas too.

And it gets really hot here in the summer. Really hot.

I should make a video of me cooking an egg on pavement some time.

Hit me up on ICQ if you have questions.

I think the forecasted high is only 99 this weekend.

First time it has been under triple digits in 2 months.

my 1st visit to pheonix last week and i absolutely loved it!!!! i may move there too after the webmaster tour

Tempe. The only place to be.

Most of west Phoenix is trash...

yep, it's hot but it's home!

i would say the really nice areas are Paradise Valley if you want "older" kinda nice

or North Scottsdale (where we are) above the 101... our house is listed at $480,000 when appraised two months ago

Quickest bang for your buck on resale right now is as close to the Chandler Mall as you can get with new construction.

i'd melt in arizona

it's really not that bad... i was washing the truck this morning at 8am and it was 97F in the shade LOL

but how many times do us WMs really ever get outside? :winkwink:

From the air, Phoneix looks just like Los Angeles! I 've read nice things about Tempe. :thumbsup

Some friends of my wife recently moved there - bought a 4 bed house, with pool, on an acre of land for less than $200,000 :eek2

only place I've lived in AZ was Tucson...I prefer it as it's generally a few degrees cooler than the Phx area...


nice up in the foothills area at the base of the Catalina Mt range....Mt Lemon is a nice 9k peak for those wicked hot summer days...a 45min drive gets you 10-15 degrees cooler up there, and sometimes snow/skiiing in the winter...

drive to Phx for biz? no problem that was only an 1 1/2 drive...

oh and cleaner air....I'm old and spoiled I don't do smog anymore, I grew up in LA for 18 years...my tolerance level for smog is pretty much zero now....

Please take note the next time that the number of automobiles in the entire Phoenix metro area does not equal the number of automobiles stuck between Whilshire and LAX on the average weekday afternoon.

Scottsdale or Chandler

Tucson!

Chandler is good

If you have the $$$ move to North Scottsdale with Easton. It's the nicest area by far. Lots of hot milfs there too.

I live in tempe and there is no way you will find a 1 acre lot with 4 bedrooms for 200k unless it is actually 2 double wides parked in the wal-mart parking lot. Shitty 3 bedroom houses are selling for 170k minimum. My 1 br. condo is $110k.

true

but it sucks driving a bike when its 30+. just too hot, even without a jacket on. so you melt and if soem idiot hits you, you'll get to know what a skin graph is all about.

phoenix!

Fountain Hills, Scottsdale.

If your talkin about the I405.........you need 20mg of Valium to make that trip. I'm glad I don't drive a limo anymore

hmm, thanks for all the ideas.
i am looking at homes.com at the moment

Hmm, so you think it's good to invest in real estate in arizona?
I'm looking to invest 300k into a business.
