Living in Arizona is quite a unique experience because of the vastness that the state offers. From the Sonoran Desert in the south to the high country in the north all the way up towards the Four Corners east and the Grand Canyon in the west. Known as the Grand Canyon state, Arizona is diverse in many ways. The state tree is the Palo Verde, the state cactus is the Saguaro, the state bird is the Cactus wren.

I moved to Tempe in 2003. Three years ago I began thinking about selling my house. I watched the prices go up and up. I thought about renting after I sold. A studio I had my eye on was $775. By the time I sold last year that studio was $1250. I looked around but there weren’t any cheap apartments in safe areas. I was priced out of buying a condo, so I moved to a cheaper state. Paid cash for a condo. And gas is $3.99.

I grew up in Apache junction from 1966 to 1973 then we bought a farm in San tan in 1973 at the end of ellsworth rd where its dirt road and we farmed 🍊 groves and cotton and potatoes until 1991. Then we sold it all. Now, it's all houses..I loved it out there in the 70s because it was so quiet and you could smell the oranges at night when the air cooled and the night sky was star filled. It's really sad how it's been erased..

That's so sad... the popular thing here in Ky & Tn is Homesteading, next door to us they are building homes, & Im not letting them developers have my land unless they wanna pay me $30,000 per 1/2 acre lots. Im a stubborn woman too, i hate developers. They built 2 mansions 3 or 7 feet apart, they messed up i think, cuz i dont hear the Mexicans pounding them nails in anymore.

We couldn’t keep it on what the two of us get for social security so we opted To buy a 30’ Class C RV and we do a lot of Boone docking on blm lands it works for us with the rents being as they are now if we hadn’t bought the RV we would probably be homeless. MY heart goes out to all the people who don’t have a home of some kind it’s a sad sad country we live in anymore

I had just turned 23 in March. Don't remember much, but I knew it was getting closer to home (L.A.) at the time, and my "active duty" was over. So I have a remote fondness for those cities' names. Now I call AZ (Oro Valley) home as CA, especially L.A. is nothing like it was back then; it is now "the peoples republic"!

Not sure about Parker, as some houses there can be expensive and some places can be cheap. Depends on where you want to live in Parker. I do know that across the River in Big River, California there are lots of land you can rent for $250.00 a month there to put a mobile home or have an RV to park and stay there. As long as you pay your rent for the plot or space of land, nothing will happen to you, only the people who don’t pay their rent will have problems and even be evicted or the spot or space taken away from you. It is ran by CRIT ( Colorado River Indian Tribes) and they are landlords out there.

Seems backwards thinking to me. I live in central Phoenix and my total spend is $600/mo and my house has appreciated an average of $2200/mo over the past 14 years. I've remodeled my house so it has a studio with a separate entrance so I could rent out most of the house for about $2000/mo if I wanted. I get many people say they can't afford to buy but imo what is really going on is people can't afford their dream house. The first house I bought was a dump in an OK, not great area. AND I had to get 2 other guys in the same boat to partner up to buy it. AND we got 1-2 roommates to help pay the mortgage. Yeah, kind of sucks to share a house...but it got us in. We fixed it up, sold and made enough profit for each of us to buy our own dumps. We fixed these up, got more roommates, repeat. If you can afford a $300k house you can afford a $600k house if you partner with someone. Houses in that range are huge. Turn it into a temp duplex so you have private areas. Get 2 other partners and you can afford $900k. That' $60k down at 20%, $1300/mo mortgage which is cheaper than rent.

I think it's a dump. I drove uber in the valley from 2005 - 2013. It's on par with west valley. Unless you live in the northern east mesa area there are motels with prostitution and drugs and homeless walking the streets. It's a dense city with a strong Mexican influence in the older areas and downtown. Great for food but may be a cultual difference being from Glasgow. I would recommend the Maricopa area if you have a budget. Chandler and Gilbert are beautiful and great places to live in the southern ends close to the Rez if you can afford it. Queen Creek and San Tan or way way out west El Mirage, Sun City. My ideal is what was the edge of no where in Queen Creek but it grew way too fast in 10 years and got priced out.

i currently live in mesa ( right in the area where you were pointing out ) . there is only one little part of mesa that i personally would call "dangerous" and even then it doesnt hold a candle to where i was born and raised hahah btw , as of 12/2/222. mesa is NOT cheap anymore. it USE to be 600-800mo for a 2 bedroom little condo. NOT ANY MORE.... same layouts are 2,000+ the unit across from us went up for rent and we were getting close to the end of our lease so we called out of curiosity ( mind you , SAME EXACT LAYOUT ) they were charging 2,300mo ! no garage. super small back yard. etc. we were luckily locked in before the covid happened. so we were lucky to only be paying 750mo. then they raised it to 950 and now they want to "renovate" so they can charge 1500+ luckily we found a similar layout , right down the street with a rv gate for 1300. you CAN get lucky BUT , it has gotten RIDICULOUS. most condo's / apt. are HIGHLY over priced. 1-2bedroom apts are wanting 1600-2200 mo. and thats BEFORE all there fee's / deposits etc.... if you dont mind driving , then i personally would recommend staying on the OUTSKIRTS ( hr + ) of town ( phx ) . phx is basically mini L.A. and san tan has become over populated over night due to all the new housing development in the last 3 yrs.

Rio Rico is quickly becoming like everywhere else in AZ over priced. Rio doesn't really have anything. It has a tiny IGA grocery store that doesn't care much, a subway, little ceasars and a Wendys that's in a truck stop those are the only chain restaurants there. Two gas stations as well. You have to drive either to Green Valley or 15 miles to Nogales to go shopping. Plus, internet there is satellite and it sucks and is super slow. And Californians have started buying up everything there as well, so the prices have really gone up, which also increases the property taxes..

I moved from SoCal to Chandler 2003 and left 2013. Rent increased from $750 to $1600. They started increasing $300 every year at the lease agreement. I moved to Sierra Vista and went from a 1 bedroom with 10 year old carpet, cold showers, a stove that didn't work. My place in Sierra Vista is a 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom bath built in in 2022. True there are border issues. Immigrants asking for water in groups, in trails in commo smuggling and clothes and trash scattered around from before they get picked up and taken to cities.

Sounds like Californication of AZ to me. Real estate pricing here in Lake Havasu City, no thanks to all the unscrupulous and greedy real estate agents here, and our close proximity to Commiefornya, is off the scale. A 2 bd/2 ba home about 1200 sq/ft is priced at $390,000.00 now, and that is an older home too. Commiefornyans have moved in here and jacked up our rents, housing prices in general, and now property taxes are being boosted into the stratosphere. Glad I got my place here when we did in 2005, paid $210K cash for my home, now worth $470K! All equity, but property taxes are on a steep upward swing because of all of the above. Looking hard at Show Low, as we have a 2nd home there. Time to punch the fuck out of here, it is getting like what we left so long ago across the river.

Nothing to do and no places to meet people, and the best licensed repair people won't come out here. And hot, OH Hell YES. You wanna come out here, I'll sell you my house.
