    "It’s nice to have easy access to the 60 and the 202. From there you can get anywhere. If only people would do better to drive the speed limit instead of 10mph under. "

    "Quick freeway but daily accidents between signalbutte and ironwood. Broadway is calmer but Mesa has aging streets and building. Not many upgrades. Today I passed a sign that says “we buy meth houses” so the neighborhood is headed the wrong direction "

    "There aren't very many kids around this neighborhood, but there is a school nearby. This area of Apache Junction is very different from most of Apache Junction. It's quiet, except for the traffic on the main road. It's nice to come home, because it's a few degrees cooler here than in the city, it's beautiful and usually smells wonderful. "

    "An easy couple of miles from the freeway, yet very quiet most of the time. There are some people with very noisy vehicles that doped up and down the road. We're within 10-20 minutes of just about anything we might need, yet out away from it all and surrounded by desert and amazing views. "
