Once again I am still not a realtor,but I also have [ no vested interest ] in wether you buy a home or not like a realtor does. If you buy, they make money, money= motivation,motivation in a down market = desperation, and you and figure out the rest. Any place is nice if you live in the right area of it. All I'm saying is watch out where you live down there cause it isnt all nice. There are other less emphatic replies than mine but true none the less. The palce is MOSTLY a low class pit . There are some really nice areas with amazing homes, and there are some pits of filth. It's about equally divided in Bullhead city 50/50. And that is the truth. I did recently find a few trailer homes for 50 thousand- ish that I picked uo to tear down and build on the lots, so now I'm in. The one thing good about socioecomicly disadvantaged areas like Bullhead y is city is that property is really cheap and easy to develop. Low wages help a lot too. The city council is not very adept at getting new high tech business and manufacturing company's to come to the area for long term emerging technology growth and develpement. But the area would need a sufficient number of existing tech trained and degreed population from which to draw upon to support those industries that just does not exist yet in the local economy. I am interested in a few things there myself, but only because I like to be a bigger fish in a smaller pond. Just the facts as I have come to know them from spending a lot of time there over several years. - Sun Jul 27 2008, 14:18

I'm not a realtor! The flat lands where all the mobiles are,Bermuda shores ,holiday shores, ettc,, where you see all those f'ed up mobile homes is well known as "FELONY FLATS", because almost all the residents have been convicted of at least 1 felony. Bull head city is also the Meth capital of the western United States. My ex live's in the Fox Hills area up on Bull head pkwy. There are gated communities up there and these days there are quite a few newer homes from 130 to 200 thousand. If it's really just a vacation home you want for a month or 2 per year ,and youve got some dough since the US dollar is very low, look on country club drive and that area near the river. It's nicer there and the socioeconomic level is a bit more middle class and up around there. Havasu is a bit more upscale than Bullhead city. To be really honest ,about 50% of Bullhead is a great bastion of poor white trash I am sad to say. So much of the area would be worth a lot more and be much nicer, but a place is only as nice as the people who live there. Bullhead is cheap, but choos wisely. Drive around for 3 or 4 days with a GPS and you'll see what I mean. - Sat Jul 5 2008, 07:00
