"We have dogs and we love the dog stations around the neighborhood that supply poop bags and a receptacle for full poop bags. That helps keep the area clean. Also, there are plenty of nice sidewalks so you don’t have to walk on the road. So much safer!"

"Lots of wild desert areas here. Coyotes are common to see. It's quiet. Which says quite a bit considering we are so close to the freeway."

"My family has lived here since 1999 and we find everything a family or people at any age could want. Great public schools, clean, safe, friendly neighborhoods, easy highway access and numerous restaurants and entertainment locations within a few miles. Many of the major hospitals supporting Phoenix are located within a few miles; Mayo (2), Paradise Valley (5), and Scottsdale (10). Many miles of trails supporting hiking and biking. At one time this was a road bikers paradise ... not so much now with all the traffic developed north of our location."

"My third sale in Boulder Creek. What a delightful pocket community snugged up against the Mountains, yet immediate access to the 101 and 51 for fast transportation to Scottsdale, downtown Phoenix or, well, anywhere. Happy community of friendly neighbors who love living around an elementary and junior high school which are the center of the planned community. Costco a mile away, tons of shopping, especially Desert Ridge Regional Shopping Center is one exit away."
- Christy W.

"I've lived in the neighborhood for several years and love the mountain reserve close by for walking and hiking, appreciate the community involvement with neighbors and love the easy access to the freeway as well as Desert Ridge and City North for shopping, dining and entertainment."

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageUsed to be great not anymore - Ever since the changeover in principles this school has gone downhill. Never in my life have I seen a school where the staff is lazy, angry, grumpy, and unable to effectively manage children without resorting to the least effective methods. The school staff chooses to punish entire grade levels for the actions of one or two children. They withhold Sports and physical activities as a form of punishment for everyone in that grade. They insist that it is the children's duty to enforce discipline over other students instead of being adults and taking care of the problem themselves. I've never seen a group of misguided faculty in my life. Further the faculty seems malcontent to be there, and strive to do the least amount of work possible. From the front desk staff to the administration the entire lot. I can't recommend the school at all. I originally bought a home in this neighborhood to have my children attend this school. I am thankful that that my youngest will soon be leaving.Parent Review1mo ago - Desert Trails Elementary School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageTo be honest, I think the school is way too advanced. Now that is not necessarily a bad thing, however, my child is in first grade, she can read, write, and spell 100 words all on her own without any help, her teacher says she should know 170 words and I should look into a holding her back a grade. An average first grader knows 100 words I am very proud of her. They also started doing presentations in front of the class and they grade them on pronunciation of the words which are very hard with the layout given. I feel that is too much for a first grader. Some of the spelling words that she had was responsibility, punish, and awkward. In my opinion, this is way too hard for a first grader, and she will not be going back after the school year.Parent Review1mo ago - Wildfire Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBeing new to Fireside we are blessed to have found a truly amazing school! Both of my boys teachers have been so helpful in getting them acclimated. They communicate effectively and respond quickly to emails. The homework makes sense and is directly related to what they are doing in class or work they have not finished. My older son is in the Honors classes for reading and math. His Honors teacher is incredible! The class sizes are larger than I’d like, but that is true all over AZ. Very happy to join the Fireside Community!Parent Review1y ago - Primrose School at Tatum
