    "The people are nice and the restaurants are great. Walmart just came in and Sprouts supermarket, it’s a small town feel but there are more retirees than there are young couples"
  • Beth Merrett
    "This is more of a retirement community and is not very kid friendly. There aren’t many activities for children."
  • Katie C.
    "I don’t care, I’m not a dog person.. lots of wildlife and coyotes... I like the quiet of not worrying about neighbors barking dogs."

  • cg70
    "Beautiful area with gorgeous foothill views. Cooler than Phoenix due to foothills. Shopping and amenities and excellent schools."
  • S D.
    "civilised wild west within reach of scottsdale. Pretty area with great spaced residential areas that don't impinge on the natural beauty of the desert. Great restaurants, some shopping and great galleries. Easy reach of Cave Creek, which is much busier."
