    "The dog owners are so rude they think it okay to put their dogs poop in my trash pail and don’t seal the bag. Now I have to keep my pail in my garage. Dogs bark incessantly in my neighborhood I am sick of it at am moving because of all the noise. Gold Canyon used to be wonderful now it’s loud and noisy all the time."

    "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."

    "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."

    "Gold Canyon is Arizona's secret gem. With the Superstition Mountains in the background where ever you look, the beauty is unsurpassed! Take a walk, or go to the shopping center, night or day without a worry about safety. Outstanding hiking trails, beautiful sunsets, close enough to Phoenix & Mesa, but far enough away from the hustle & bustle. There's nowhere else I'd rather live!!"
