    "Vail Unified Scho District is the #1 ranked school district in AZ. Although, you don't have to live in Vail to attend Vail schools. many neighboring communities in Tucson get to attend the Vail school district schools without having to pay Vail township taxes for these schools. A great example of this is Rita Ranch, which is in Tucson, has a Tucson address, residents pay Tucson taxes but, their kids get to go to school at Vail schoola."

    "I know my neighbors. I walk every day as we have walking paths. Great schools. The children are decent and kind. Easy going and low cost HOA. Crime is not an issue as it is not Tucson. New Safeway and other shopping just up the hill. Very quiet day and night. You will love living here."

    "We will retire to this area. It is peaceful, quite and you can still see the stars. Neighbours are wonderful, friendly and always willing to wave as they pass and help if needed. Schools are terrific. There is NO crime and if there was, bad guys watch out. People come out here for their privacy and as such buy larger lots of land and expect you to respect the land as much as they do. You can still see the stars at night as you are surrounded by the Rincons which block the city light glare. Shopping at walmart, walgreens, safeway, albertsons or frys is a meer 20" - 25" away. It's well worth the commute:)"
