  • TG
    "Quit, safe neighborhood with great places to hike. Good selection of churches locally. Easy access to Mesa and Phoenix for great shopping, but with more of a small town feel. Plenty of golfing for residents and visitors. Close to Canyon lake and quick access to the Superstition mountains and the great outdoors. Annual Lost Dutchman marathon winds through Gold Canyon and is fun to watch. Many neighborhood trails and it is a quick trip to hike Silly mountain."
  • Resident
    "It's quiet. Visitors say it's peaceful. This is a snowbird community but not entirely. We and others live here year 'round. We're only minutes from the highway. You'll see mostly retirement-aged people here but many younger as well."
