    "it's Grown on me, I didn't like the idea of living out here, but it's what I could afford at the time, HWY 347 can be a pain, wish they would use our tax dollars to add more routes to get to the I-10 freeway"

    "my neighborhood has great access to all main roads as well as public transportation. But if you work in any other town especially scottsdale plan on leaving work no later then 2:30pm and driving to work in the morning plan on leaving no later then 5:00 am or you will be waiting in traffic for atleast an extra 1hr without any accidants or hold-ups. S.R 347 is awful and desperatley needs to be widened theirs no choice to it or move."

    "On a good day you are 20 mins to the I-10 at Chandler. Lots at Chandler with the 202 being right there, the Arizona Mills Mall, Harkins Theater, and even IKEA. 347 is a bit crazy but that just means you need to pay attention to the road and stay off your phone. I didn't commute daily so it was perfect for me. "

    "For everyday living, North Maricopa is surprisingly good. Everything you need is here, plus additional is being built. For entertainment and nightlift, there are two casinos, one 5 minutes south the other about 20 minutes north, and the quality of entertainers is good to excellent, but that's about it. Broadway-quality shows at Gammage Theater are about a half-hour north, along with most everything else."
